Late Tank Early Car - Help
Hi Gang,
Has anyone ever put one of the late model gas tanks in an early car? I'd like the extra capacity.
I have a 71 RS Clone (T based). The new tank is out of a 1987 car. I have both tanks here now and I noticed a fairly large difference in the connections.
My current connections are a banjo fitting for the return and the screened outlet both with female screw fittings on the tank. Both are toward the center of the tank.
The new tank has a simple press-on clamp style outlet (I'm guessing outlet due to the size) and a screw on (male this time) return. Both are toward the outside of the tank.
I'm guessing the outlet on the new tank won't be a problem. Is there a fitting for the return line that I can put in-line?
Any advise from anyone who's BTDT is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
E.
