I wonder if u have to do that in Vic ? And does ARB organise this for u or even tell you this when u purchase the tank ?

Finally got an email back from Vicroads about replacing my fuel tank with a larger one (89lt to 127lt), I might contact "Long Range Automotive" in Lilydale to see what they have to say.

Here is the attachment mentioned below....

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>Thankyou for your email.

You will be required to obtain an Approval Certificate for this
modification. Some of the issues the engineer will have to address are:

The venting of the tank to comply with the emission ADRs.
The location and suitability of the filler point.
The effects the increased weight of the tank will have on the vehicle
and
the tank mountings, and
The ground clearance and clearance from exhaust system etc.

(See attached file: VASS LIST FOR PUBLICATION 17 June 2004.doc)

Should you have further queries after speaking with an Engineer, please
contact VicRoads during business hours on 131171 and speak to an
operator
from Vehicle Safety.

Yours sincerely
