EFI gas tank on carbed sled?

Has anyone ever converted a Z chassis EFI gas tank to work on a carbed sled?

You just need to make a cover plate for the pump hole and then attach the lines needed for the pulse run pump.

Thanks RJ sounds like a simple mod.

did it on my wifes. very simple. just make sure that you use a sealant that is rated for gas when putting on cover or it may leak when riding and gas is sloshing around.

There is a local guy that needs a fuel pump so I was thinking of selling him my good one and asking if I can have his broken one. Seems to me that this would work as well as anything to block the hole off.

If they are from the same body style, it will work as the same mold was used for both tanks.
