Default GD Fuel tank into a GC

HI All

Has anyone put a GD fuel Tank into a GC? My Type R is needing a new tank and if the GD will fit then it would be a good option? Any thoughts and advice?

Thanks.

Looking at threads in the good ol USA it seems to be a direct fit physically, has anyone tried this in the UK?

I'm going to give it a go in my Type R as finding a good tank is proving quite hard.

Well it's done, the new tank is in place and so much better than any of the Gc tanks I found.

It does very well a couple of vent mods needed but otherwise OK. I'm using the whole pump assembly from the original so no issues with fuel level reading etc.
