Cut open and reweld fuel tank?

Alas, that tank is still in two pieces.  The job of gluing it back together has been kicked back from the forefront of efforts/work more times than I care to recall.

Absolutely,  cutting it apart was the best (only way for me) to get the metal right.  Fortunately,  there's very little interior corrosion, just bad bruises (which I still cannot figure out it happened).  The one remaining area to straighten that is inaccessible from inside is immediately below the in-tank filter.  I'm thinking of deleting it altogether to get the dents, and I want to slosh around some tank sealant and the prospects for getting fuel the filter look terrible at best.

I haven't been on here so much lately, largely bc of the seriously annoying ad experiences 😉.  I know I can throw money at it to make it go away (mostly?), but haven't gotten there yet.

 

The pickup is in the floor of the tank, correct? How does that work if the fuel level is below the collar? Are there holes in it that we can't see? Curious regarding the design here.

I went with S30world tank as mine was is very rough condition. It was a perfect fit, one of the best aftermarket items I have purchased.

Peace of mind goes along way.
