Have not read the catalogs from Snyders, Brattons or Berts as to what the gas tank threads are, but I just measured a 1928 CCPU gas tank and a 1930 Coupe gas tank shut off valve thread.. i measure1/4" pipe thread and a 1/4" pipe fitting screw into the shut Off boss in the bottom of the tanks.

Agree....I'm working on a 29 tank right now. It's 1/4" pipe thread. Pipe threads are a different animal from bolt and nut threads. Do not confuse the two types of threads.
