Its not to hard man i put a vp ss tank in mine 83l . U will have to do the following find out if its series one cause i think they bolt straight up . Also is it isnt u will have to mod the straps and drill new mounting holes , Change the sender unit or change the plug on the sender unit ( Vn i think has 5 screws and the vl sender has 6 or its the other way around ) . Also u might have 2 change a few vac ines around to suit it .

LUVMTL - Does the 83L hang down a lot lower then the average 63L tank? Post up a picture if you can. I've wanted a drop tank for ages, but there still seems to be some confusion between the sizes and models and what fits straight up and what doesn't.

i think that VN and VP v8 fuel tanks are only 80 litre and the only 90 litre ones you will find are BT1 tanks.
