Fuel filler pipe

I need a tight bend in my 2" fuel filler hose.. With superflex type pipe (i.e for example from CBS) how tight can I get?

Any photos?

The stuff is so expensive I don't want to by something that will not work!

Cheers

Dan

It's not ideal to go through tight bends and because it is expensive like you say why don't you go to a local engineering firm and get them to just weld two pieces of ali together in the angle you need.

It will be a lot better when fuelling also...

Have you tried filling the car at a petrol station like that?

I would have thought the fuel would come spilling back out with the pressure.. or the pump would turn off almost immediately thinking it was full.
