Filler Neck mod

I have both tanks dropped for fuel system upgrades, while I was this far I might as well do the filler neck mods to help fill up faster. I must be a computer loser because I can't find the link for the upgrades can someone help a bro out?
Thanks,
AlanB

If I recall correctly, I have some pics of the "cheap way" in my webshots, in the link below.
The hardest part of the whole affair is getting that goofy little metal ring out of the filler neck that the inner rubber hose mounts to. There's been some creative ways to get that metal ring out described in the old, archived threads. I ran outta patience, and used a cutting torch. Didn't hurt the filler necks at all. Did this after driving it down to the opposite end of the filler neck with a broom handle & a hammer.
After that, it's not "Rocket Science", as I've said before. All you wanna do is give the fuel a better, less restricted path in, and the air needs a way out of the tank as fuel comes in. There's probably a dozen different ways to do this. Just be sure your hose you run from a rollover valve, or sprinkler elbow is routed in a gradual, uphill path to the highest point you can get it on your fillerneck. Fuel can get trapped in that hose if there's a "dip" in it's path, and that will negate all your hard work. Hope this helps ya out some!
