A buddy of mine did it. As well as another guy I purchased parts from. We used bulkhead fittings from jegs. I don't recommend the "Jegs" brand fitting. The nylon seals like to squish out. It happened on my fuel cell and my friends stock tank. Don't know if either leak yet. Go with a quality non Chinese brand.

I did it, competition engineering kit. Was like $60. Didn't wanna screw with welding on my old tank so I bought a new one. I got $250 in the whole thing iirc.

With my luck, if I went to just put a bulkhead fitting in the tank, the arcing in the drill motor would ignite the fumes lol!
