67 Indian

Hi guys,
Yes, It's true...I'm a Pontiac owner, but I need help with a problem and was hoping you Chevy guys wouldn't mind helping me out.
I'm hoping that some of you 64-67 owners might have a suggestion to a problem I've having since no one in the Pontiac world seems to have a solution.
I have a '67 Lemans Vert that's a nice street car, but I want to be able to do some tuning and run decent at the drags. My fuel tank has a 1/4 factory vent in the filler neck, which I think is inadequate for my application. My tank is sumped, and I run a Mallory Comp 140 pump, which is regulated at the carb, and I'm using the factory steel supply line as a return line.
I want to either keep the tank I have or would like to purchase a custom replacement tank that will bolt in the place of the one I have that has adequate venting (maybe someone makes a tig-welded sumped tank that is other wise a bolt-in???)
If I keep the tank I have, the only easy method I can think of would be to purchase a different sending unit (one with a factory return built in). Does anyone have a suggestion of how to add additional venting?
No one makes a vented cap that will fit my filler neck, and I would consider a fuel cell if someone made one that would bolt in place of my tank with a minimum of mods. I'm bnot too crazy about cutting up my trunk floor.
TIA.....
Jim
