if you're back mounting I would recommend doing a proper height check to really figure out the optimal tank size for you as this is rather important for boat diving where you need to sit and can be the difference in choosing an E8-119 or an E7-120, same gas but radically different tanks. sit down on a picnic table or some other flat ish surface and take a tape measure and reach back as far as you comfortably can as if you were manipulating the tank valve. Measure from there down to the table and subtract about 2 inches, cross check that height against this chart
Scuba Cylinder Specification Chart from Huron Scuba, Ann Arbor Michigan
and it will give you a good starting point for tanks to look out for so you don't turtle backwards if they're too short, HP80's etc, or so long that you can't actually sit, HP120's etc.

Scuba Tanks Double 104 PST 12/2014 hydro Halcyon Manifold
good deal there but a bit of a drive,

Scuba Faber LP 120 x 2
good deal there too but they are BIG tanks

good luck, just trying to help you narrow the search a bit so you are diving tanks that will be comfortable for you under water
 
that's about as good as you're going to get for those, they are rather hard to find as the stubby ones were rather uncommon when PST made them and I haven't seen any of the Worthingtons. That is a good price for them though, $125 used is as cheap as you really find steel tanks other than LP72's
