Thanks - Sam
The air tank comes with a bronze output fitting. That fitting has two outputs on it one 1/4 NPT port and one 1/8 NPT port where the gauge is normally. We simply plugged the 1/4 NPT output and then put a fitting into the 1/8 NPT output to allow for use with the pneumatic tubing allowed within the rules.

Funny enough. We now use a 7 Gallon Aluminum air tank on our bot.
