After doing a little research here's what I came up with.  There are 4
manufacturers of cylinders in the US *Catalina *Luxfer  for aluminum and *Faber
,*Pressed
Steel. All the Brand names; Catalina, Dacor, Dolphin, Parkway, Sherwood, Tanks 
D'art, and USD are made by one of these 4 manufactuerers.


Catalina has only aluminum tanks with ranges in capacity of 53 cuft to 130 cuft
the only tanks in their line that have dissimiliar rated cuft and standard sizes
are the 80 cuft they have 3 (80cuft) tanks the C80 is 77.4cuft at 3300psi 
the S80 is 77.4 cuft at 3000psi and the U80 is 80cuft at 4350psi

Dacor has only 2 tanks both Al the Standard 80 is 77.4 at 3000psi and the Super
80 is 80cuft at 3000psi

Scubapro is the "weird" one all Steel tanks 71.4 at 71.4cuft 3300psi, 75.8 at
75.8 at 2640psi and a 95.1 at 95.1 cuft at 2640psi They're weird because they
call their tanks by their actual size instead of rounding it up to industry
standards 

Dolphin is the largest with 14 different size tanks ranging from 50 to 120 cuft
       	Since I can only post a certain # of lines before I get cut off 
	I'll continue this on another post if the list likes
	Most of the info is from the various vendors brochures
	No claims for accuracy or other stuff (in other words don't sue me if
	I'm wrong. My typing stinks and I have no backspace!!!!)
TBC if you want ???
