bought it like this. didnt know it at the time until i stripped the interior. im sure it wont pass a track day tech as-is. the hole came in handy for the re-wiring i had to do. should i weld, or seam seal a patch in place......since there is already a hole there, is there something with a trap door in it for access, should i need to do the fuel pump or wiring again. i don't feel like welding on top of the tank. would a seam seal patch be good enough for track techs. |

Eventually I plan to cut mine out and make a panel with a foam rubber gasket and rivet nuts around the perimeter. My 97 olds Aroura had that from the factory. Made life so easy when it needed to be serviced.
