How much fuel will this one take ?
iirc this tank will hold way too much fuel so maby as you say' chop a bit off the bottom and add a platform for it (* like this ) with space for a sump
*
Dont think the mk2 one will fit J as there is naff all room between the edge of the well and the strut brace.

standard tank and a swirl pot is the easyest idea!

If you both settle on what you want with accurate measurements I can get them sorted as a deal
Was getting PM's off both of you and you were both going in different directions lol, thats what made it hard at the time
We can make you what you want - but I need to know what it is first
