I am building a small fuel tank for my LSR bike.  It will be aluminum and I am looking for a non-recessed but vented cap and aluminum weld-in bung.  I used an ACS flush fuel cap 10600 from Aircraft Spruce on my last build.  But it was too recessed and prevented my using the full capacity of the tank.  Any specific ideas?
Thanks

That's such a nice cap assembly, is it possible to design your tank with a raised portion in which to mount the assembly?

summit and jegs have caps with bungs. aluminum.

the bungs can be shortened to sit flush with the top of your tank.
