Seriously F you.

I’d like to thank Autobahn (Mike) for providing a reasonably priced and excellent condition used tank.

The swap went very well and the car is back on the road

I plan to take my old tank to a friend with a machine shop to see if he can develop a repair kit similar to those that work in 944/928s. Just not sure how it can be done without cutting a new hole in the tank.
A huge FU to Porsche indeed $3300 for a fuel tank is ridiculous.

Glad it all got sorted. Mike is definitely the go-to. He's helped me out on a few occasions with parts. And just so I understood correctly. As long as you have a 964 part number for the fuel tank we won't have to worry about messing with the weird pump configuration on a 993 fuel pump?

Yes from what I read and what was posted above you will be best served by giving Mike your tank part number (not the evaporator tank number) and the year of your car.
