I know the race 914 guys have probably done this, but I want to space my gas filler higher, cut a hole in the front hood and fill fuel through the opening. I have a few ideas on doing a "GT" type cap and how to do a spacer and rubber skirt, who has done this?
Pictures? Threads? |

Looks to me like it would be easier to put the gas nozzle in?? Just wondering if you researched the proper flap opening???
