51mm - 45mm filler hose?

Is there such a thing?

I need to connect my tank to my filler cap.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I made one out of a couple of bits of appropriate length 1.6(?)mm strip bent into tubes the correct diameter... then welded together.

Bloody thing's never stopped leaking since!

But I'm sure if more time were taken it could be done better!!! Mine was done about 5mins before SVA IIRC!


Cheers,
James

silicon hoses reducer??? That's what I used





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
