well, if yournot going for emissions (I assume not, your in Louisiana), then yoink out the air pump and tubes, you'll get alot of extra space under there :-)

what part of Louisiana you in? I wasn born and raised in Leesville, by the Ft. Polk military base. I'm in Phoenix Arizona for college though.

The top?

The tubing is 1/4", so go to a REAL hardware store (not Save big money) and buy flare plugs for 1/4" tubing.

They're flare fittings. Flare fittings are an odd animal. They don't have a normal NPT thread pitch. They have their own.
