Fuel tank venting

[565bbchevy]

So I bought a new stock replacement Spectre fuel tank, sender and straps for my project Regal and I am wondering what the best way to vent it without any emission stuff or charcoal canister

I don't think they made on for our style cap but a vented gas cap if there are any out there?

Doesn't one of the smaller lines off the sender need to be vented?

With the three line sender tget are for the fuel supply, supply return, vent to charcoal canister. With a vented cap the vent line could be capped. On other idea is to somehow vent that line into the carb/throttle body to recover the fumes but it would need a flame arrestor incase of back fires.

Looks like a plan; just zip tie the hose up the filler neck and leave the vent behind the plate.

That's the way the late 60s/early 70s iron used to do it as well.

Sounds hokie but I used a small open element valve cover looking breather for my vent. I put it on the vent line from the sending unit with a few inches of hose so it's not slammed against the trunk floor. Works great for me.

I have seen people drill a small hole in the gas cap before as well...
