Question for those using a Jeep fuel tank

Evening all.

So, for those of you not familiar with my C10 I have a shortbed that I have put a fuel tank from a Jeep in behind the rear axle.

Nothing unusual there.

My question is for those that have gone down this path... what have you done with all of the “holes”!

There is one which I am assuming is the fill and a vent(?) and then 2 smaller ones on the other side.

Plus! From the fuel basket there is an inlet and outlet (forgot to add I am using a blazer basket)in addition to 2 other pipes a large and a small.



I am thinking that I can loop the two small holes on the far side of the picture, merge the vent into the fill tube but what about the ones on the fuel basket?

Is the large pipe another vent and should I merge that into the fill tube as well?

The smaller one I would assume goes to a charcoal canister on a Jeep so should I just block it off?

Also the fill holes seem very small - has anyone experienced any issues with this? As it is a brand new tank I “could” put in a new fill but would prefer not too.

I have also read about how the Jeep tank is 13 gallons but by moving the fill to the upper hole it can then hold 15 gallons or have I got that wrong.

Anyway, all comments and advice welcome.

P.
