Tank fittings

Hi guys,
Im not too sure if this is in the right section but here we go?
Im about to make my fuel tank, and was just wandering what tank fittings you guys have used? Im not sure wether to make my tank out of steel or ally? but stuff like intakes, returns and filler pipes?

Cheers Jas Gray

carb or injection?

for carb you need:
a fuel outlet
fuel filler neck
breather outlet

for injection you also need a fuel return
