Once you have the tank removed and clear of the car are you going to do the deed and cut Ross's opening mod or muscle it again next time.


Thank you for bringing that to mind Howard. Yes - I'll do that as R&R'ing these gas tanks is not one of my favorite things.

I think you're right about the valve needing to come out as the box seems to slide in under the flange of the plenum. For it to slide, the valve has to go. Bye the way, you are right about the placing of the core in the box: It does lay flat one the '51 at any rate - the '55 has the core is at an angle.

Thanks also for posting the picture and all as to the placement of the access hole on the trunk floor. You realize, of course, that after I cut this hole and devise a cover, I will never ever have trouble with leakage or sender failure in this car for the rest of my life.
