If that is Ben’s / MB911 tank, no extra cutting is needed. I have the first one he made for sale and a version 3 that was made a couple months ago. Both tanks fit in my 70, 71 & 74. I have heard the door support in later cars can interfere with the tank but it doesn’t on mine. Remember the early cars had the same chassis as a six but mid year and later had changes that no longer needed to fit a six at the factory. Still, I’ve never seen the need to cut into what looks like the suspension console.
