Peter,

The tanks are 32"x10"x12", therefore are a standard blitz tank. The difference is in the position of the filler. You have to get it in the middle of the armoured cap. The drain might also be in the wrong place. The sender doesn't matter but is 6 volts not 12 volts as is the fuel gauge. The new fuel pipes can be made according to the location of the L/R tap.

Regards Rick
