That would work but would require two different size fuel lines and four more clamps, all potential leaking points. I know a more expensive but simpler solution would be to change the taps at the tank. Shipping from the EU to the states may be a problem during the current pandemic. I'm currently waiting for a box of Cubans from Spain.

Also parts are swapped over time with whatever works and is available.
I think what Jordan is pointing out is that the tolerance between parts were pretty loose.

Speaking of Tebaldi, I just noticed this stamp inside my tank:
Looks like it says FLL TEBALDI MONZA
Don't judge my oxidation

Wow, that's impressive observation, there! . Thanks for the post.
Remind me, this is a Mach 1, yes?

Good memory Craig! It is a Mach 1. The only reason I noticed the stamp was that I'm currently removing the rust inside.
