Reply to "Air craft style gas filler"

...Yes! Even though the filler neck Already comes to the outside, there is still extensive cutting on the two layers of sheetmetal. But NOT nearly as much as if you had the 'internal' (engine bay) filler cap. remember, not only does the opening have to clear the funnel, it also has to clear the 8 screw tips and nuts! Also, on MY car, drivers side, because you can't adjust the position of the fuel tank nor the location of the cap; there was a 1.0" missalignment from the tanks' neck, to the caps' funnel. This was easily overcome by locating and using a 2.0" Diameter Filler hose that is made of a rubber that is VERY FLEXIBLE. The only Problem is it, costs $20. per foot. Last, to pump gasoline in, the nozzle has to be turned up-side-down with its' hose pointed towards the sky. Not an inexpensive conversion, but if you want it bad enough. Those that have done it, are very happy with the results and would do it again. It deffinitely stands out from ALL the rest!!...
