Default Semi Horn

Im considering putting a semi horn on my truck. Anybody know where to get cheap tanks and compressors? already got the horns. They're off a wrecked dump truck of my boss' dad's. My boss gives me too many damn ideas... Lol

I'm not sure how big it'd have to be some it's ran off the air system on the semi.

Dang!! Most train horn set ups run on a .5-1 gallon tank. the pressure is what matters. tank size only affects duration of the horn

a 1 gal tank would be plenty, i do have a 5 gal tank tho its single port so you would hav to put a T on it that way you can have a compressor, and horn hooked up. which i should also have plenty of fittings layin around.
thats if your interested in something that big
