Drill a hole into Fuel Filler Neck?

All,

Well I got er' done. The filler neck came out with 4 screws.. Had to tug on the tube quite a bit to get it out of the collar on the tank. I cleaned up the tube and added a 1/8 npt hole to accept a 1/4 brass barb. I scribed a position on the tube while still in place on the car. Just above the collar and below the rubber access boot and removed and drilled. Threaded it in and used JB Weld to permanently hold it there. I decided to reuse the ol' gasket and collar/grommet. Ran the fuel hose around the shock and tank to the stock vent hard line near the sending unit. I left the stock vent nipple on the sending unit open and will add a 90 deg elbow to keep fine dirt out although it has a check valve that only opens when needed. After letting the JB cure, fired her up and no issues.

Thanks to all for the input! Got off my *** and just did it in a few hours total in my drive!

Thanks,
Marion
