my calibrated eyeball says 2 1/2 inches...that still leaves over 4 inches clearance between the front of the tank and the differential. if it hits ill beat a dent in it with a sledge hammer. ive got lots of exhaust room.

i called a place in dallas, my other home, and that shop said they could relocate the fill neck to another position on the tank. might try that on the next one. if i could move the fill neck forward instead of the whole tank that might be better.

i also called a tubing shop. guy said he would try to bend a new neck based on the old one i bought from Dwayne. if that works out then ill probably go
that route.

all i know is im done messin around. gas tanks are meant to be in a truck holding gas, and not bein a pain
