Check out Dave Pascoe's article on how to install gas tanks if you haven't already read it - it's been posted on here many times.

Regarding grounds and bonding systems, check out the "Grounds & Grounding", "Bonding Systems" and "DC Systems" sections Pascoe's article on electrical systems. Some folks don't necessarily agree with every thing he writes, but I've read a couple of his books and many of the articles on his web site and he seems to have a lot of first hand experience with most of the stuff he writes about!
