Sorry - no such thing as a cheap alloy fuel tank
I had this one fabricated for bretts nova - at a cost of over ?400 !!

U can buy 'off the shelf' tanks which r usually rectangular but restrict the position they can be mounted in a Nova
In terms of fuel line in the car - again this can result in a hefty bill if using aeroquip hose and JIC-6/JIC-10 anodised ends
I dont want 2 b seen as putting u off the idea - But just making u aware that what initially sets out as a good - must have - mod, can turn out a very expensive mod - As Brett found out !!
no offence but wheres the firewall?? i know if its not going racing you dont "need" one, but surely its common sense to have one
but arent fuel tanks fitted in the wheel well of stock cars without fire walls? i used to be part of the mehanics team for a stock car group a long time ago (i was friends with the son), i didnt know much, i just watched and learnt really, i did the usual stuff like changing wheels, filling the tank and hanging the exhaust back on with chicken fencing wire! lol and actually building the cars!
is it possible (or worth it) putting in a 1.6 GTE/GSi tank, pump and lines into a 1.2i?
