    You can get an insert with the smaller filler hole, a lot easier and neater too.

    Go to an import place that does compliencing they have the inserts, else you could try cutting one out of a VL or later tank

    rang an import place see if they sell insert and they said 110 % sure the rule has changed so you dont need to worry as they dont make leaded fuel any more

    I thought you only wanted to do it for looks, there is no law that says you have to do it.

    no was a law that you had to change filler neck so it would only take unleaded and not leaded fuel but heard today from a import place they scrapt that law as leaded fuel is not made any more
