Opel Manta A Series fitted with in-tank fuel pump

I managed to get and modify the original fuel pump gasket as although the pump came from webcon with a gasket it was just an ‘O’ ring type and i wasn’t convinced it would seal that well on the tank flange. So i ordered the one from Fiat and turned it into a flat gasket, which is much wider than an ‘O’ ring and covers the whole flange. Then i ordered a V-band clamp from ebay. So here it is all fitted up with  4″ V-band clamp. Just need to test the pump runs ok now its in the tank and it will be ready fuel fuelat some point in the new year 🙂
