Ed, I bought one from Peter C. in about 06 or 07. I had a couple of
issues: the olive fitting was too deep and the stock pipe wouldn't quite
tighten up. I ground down a washer to take up the slack and all was
good. The filler neck was a little off the hole in the boot. I cut the
pipe and spliced in a rubber hose and a later filler pipe so I could use
my Monza filler cap. About 6 months after Peter shipped it to me he
sent me a note asking about the filler neck fit but since I modified it
anyway I couldn't verrify that there was a problem. I'll bet that Peter
remembers the issue and could give you some good advice. The other
thing missing from the tank was the drain plug, not a problem for me. I
used a spray can of truck bed liner material to coat the tank and it has
been good since.
