Cambelt Change - Bulkhead Panel?

The 355 has a one piece fuel tank that goes across the front of the engine compart. 360's have two.

Here's the tank and self explanatory as to why it's not possible.

Net net, you would need to drop the tank and retrofit an access panel.

Unless you redesign the fuel tank.

The 355 is designed to have the weight were it is. The fuel cell cannot be moved simply because there is nowhere else to put it. If one moves the fuel cell then the engine would have to move as well which means a little tweaking of the body style......oh wait a minute......thats a 360!
