I have a brass fuel sender as below with 2 1/2" 16 TPI threads and am looking to buy/make up a flange to accept the threads. I cannot seem to find any internally threaded fuel neck of this size (plenty of external threads) or a tap of this size. (It is a fuel sender I want to use in a slab tank-MG J2 style tank)
Any ideas or leads of where to find one or other?

Thank you. A bit heavy duty perhaps and a long way away - Canada.

A simple enough job for someone with a lathe , ask at you local model engineering society someone will be sure to help for a little cash I expect.
