    I just had two left hand VL tanks repaired and he used two old fashioned giant soldering irons alternately heated by an oxy-acetylene torch. A big heat reservoir helps when putting that fillet of solder along the tank top inside. It would be less challenging to modify pre-1936 small twin tanks rather than use later WLA tanks.
