Help!

I'm in the middle of repairing the longitudinal rust on my 914-6 conversion and I'd like to cut all the required holes for installing a -6 oil tank. I have most of the left rear quarter-panel off and I'd like to cut the holes while I have easy access.

I can plainly see where most of the holes should go, but I don't know where to cut the unmarked hole.

I could also use some help cutting the required hole in the engine tray sheet metal.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim

The problem is I don't have the tank yet (I'm waiting for a DWDesign Aluminum tank...sometime in mid-Feb).

I plan on running metric to AN adapters, rubber hose, and a Fluidyne oil cooler. I converted the car some time ago and was running a Peterson oil tank and ATL fuel cell with a built 2.7L.

However, I want to make it look more like a stock GT. I have the body down to a bare shell and most of the rear quarters are off (to do some rust repair). I'd post some pics, but I don't have a place on the web to store them.

I'm trying to get all the body mods done now while I have easy access.

The Harbor Freight idea is a good tip. I'll have to look at their hole saws on their website. I have some of the right sizes, but not the big one.
