John,

There are fuel cells that have necks at the cell that accept large diameter fuel hose to connect to an exterior fuel filler.

You will have to figure out how to connect it up, but it shouldn't be that hard to do.

If you do have to customize something, make sure your fuel filler hose is rated for fuel and here's why.

About 30 years ago, my brother converted his 1973 Chevy Suburban to a 1 ton dual wheel rear end. To accommodate the custom rear fenders, the fuel filler had to be relocated and the mods were done by a friend. He used a piece of big rig radiator hose and not fuel hose and we didn't notice until it started leaking from a hole due to fuel eating through the hose several years later.
