Fuel tank vent

I vented my fuel tank with a homemade charcoal canister to help keep the vapor emissions down that will be created by the 255 GPH fuel pump I'll be running to feed the coyote. The tank has 2 vents, 1 above the pump and sump and 1 venting the bulk of the tank, I had to run 2 vent lines into 1 then through the charcoal canister, I hope it works!!!

Sounds good to me. Be sure to use a non-vented gas cap too.

Can you please provide some information on this tank and does the filler come out the back?
I would love to place the filler between the bumper and bed on our 55 Stepside.
Thanks

Hey F1 Coyote,
Good luck on the venting! My wife was unhappy with our truck in the garage
smelling up the place with just a vent & no charcoal canister. I scrounged up a canister
off of a salvage yard mini van & it works great... no more complaints.

The price of a new charcoal canister was around $200.. salvage yard was under $30.

Looking for pics of the filler exiting out the back between the bumper and truck bed.
Thanks
