I need to modify the tank anyway as the whole for the fuel pickup is too large, but was thinking of making an adapter ring for this. The picture below is of my new tank next to an original.
Thanks again.

I am curious if your fuel tank sludge drains line up with the hull floor access opening? Otherwise you cannot access the drain plugs from below.
There is a rotating cover for those hull drain openings. Not having the covers in place allows debris to enter the hull,
out of sight and out of mind. When driven over mud, the drain opening acts like a cheese slicer, allowing the mud to enter the hull in neat curls.
For the same reason you may want your transmission and engine oil drain access covers in place.
Eh, Ben, Shaun, Richie and Kevin?
