    Fuel tank closing plate dimensions

    Hi!
    Does anybody have the exact dimensions of a fuel closing plate?
    As I'm in Brazil, it's complicated to import such part because of the size and weight.
    Thank!

    Do you have access to cad? I can send you my drawing of one. Send it straight to a fabricator and they can make it up for you.

    I put my closing plate on the floor and measured it out. Printed a 1:1 drawing of it to confirm the dimensions. This is mine.

    Hi Josh,

    As you can see my closing plate has a few rust holes and is badly pitted.
