In making a conversion to a 3.2 I am tempted by the availability of a nice matching oil tank, and not exactly thrilled by the price of a more authentic tank. If I have welding skills, is there a way of converting the 911 tank to fit? I would prefer it not in the trunk, but not committed to the left side, although that seems most obvious. Someone must have thought about this before - stupid idea?

I have wondered if a 964/993 tank could be mounted in the right side fender well ahead of the tire. That is where it is located on the 911 but filler and dip stick are in the engine comp connected via hose and tube.
Never had one of those tanks out to look at. lower hose connection probably would line up with the long so the hose would have to go thru it.  Jim |
