And it rhymed. I was debating previoulsy doind a Camaro style filler on the back, and change the angle but like your idea.

One other thing I was thinking is building an extension that you can basically attach to your stock filler and remove at fill-ups.

That too is a good, and much less labor intensive, solution. What I like most about what I've done is I was able to get a check ball valve in there to prevent the "slosh" of the fuel going back up the neck and bypass the cap/ slobber over the car during acceleration.
