No chance, totally different shape and filler neck is not in the centre of tank like LH LX

^ That's cause the UC ones sit to one side, as the spare tire is on the side in a UC.  Having said that, prolly not, as it won't have the LH/LX spare tyre curvy bit toward the front of the car.  I have a UC and an LX one here if you want me to look.

Do you have a drop tank or standard tank in your car mate?

Sweet as. I've got a spare drop tank here if you're after one at some stage (stainless). I'm not in a rush to get rid of it so whenever you're keen mate & it'll be cheap too.

 

I understand priorities with getting stuff sorted mate. You should start up a build thread with all the little improvements you do to your car B)

how much for the drop tank - in case mine is beyond repair?

Also what else typically needs changing to accomodate ? I imagine the straps change but do sender, uptake tube etc swap over or do i need bespoke stuff?
