Aftermark replacement fuel tanks baffled?

In the never ending quest for my TTA to hit the road again, I filled it up and watched it pour out the tank :-( leaking from filler neck area or possibly tank seam. I cant see in enought to find the exact spot , even going in thru the filler enck hole.

I know the GM replacement is baffled and i can get it for 250-275$ or so.

My question is, I found two other aftermarket tanks for a better price, however, are the aftermarket tanks baffled like the current factory replacement?

Cam anyone confirm or deny this?

thanks
Jeremy

Are those aftermarket ones also replacements for the cars w/o a baffled tank? If they are, I betcha they aren't baffled.

I know the GM replacement for the non-baffled cars is the same # as for the baffled tanks, but i wondered the same about the aftermarket ones. Got some part #'s/sources? What's the GM part # you're looking at, I was looking for the # myself and couldn't find it.
