<VV> Turbo Fuel Return Tees

[Jim Simpson]

Hmmm.  My '66 Corsa turbo came with a metal nipple on the fuel 
filler.  I bought the car in '68 (second owner) and know the original 
owner didn't make such a mod.  I was expecting to find the rubber "T" 
when I restored the car, but was pleasantly surprised to find the 
metal nipple.  It needed to be resoldered since it was a bit loose, 
probably due to my flexing it while pulling the gas tank, but that 
was no problem.

Does anyone have any idea when GM made the change?  My Corsa was made 
in October '65 at Willow Run.

I certainly doesn't look like a hard thing to make from scratch -- 
just some small diameter steel line, bent to fit in the space 
available; drill a suitable hole in the filler next pipe, and solder 
in place.  The hardest part would be draining and pulling the 
tank.  I don't think soldering on a gas filled tank would be that 
good an idea.  :-)
