Then I drilled the frame and taped it for 1/8" NPT. I used a 1/8" NPT FORD inline carb fuel filter screwed into the frame and attached the hose end to the 5/16" steel line with a short piece of fuel line and two clamps.
Incoming air, is vented/filtered by the fuel filter, then the height of the steel tubing keeps the fuel from sloshing out. No fuel smell is inside the car because it's vented to the outside, even though it's plumbed inside...
