RE: Gas tank question
When I was repairing a tank last summer, I pulled the small 1/2 gallon plastic tank off a leaf mulcher and bungee corded it to the frame and it worked just fine. I think just about anything will work just so long as you.......
wear the proper gloves....
tie the do-rag right....
fill in the small hole in the back of the front fender....
place you HOG sticker on properly....

RE: Gas tank question
Sorry I don't know the answer to the hole question but a tank from an EFI bike should work just fine. I have a carb'd 2004 FXD and put a tank from an 2006 EFI bike on this past year as part of a custom sheetmetal swap. the only thing you'll probably have to replace is the small piece that threads into the tank. Carb has a petcock, EFI no petcock assbly. Reuse the one from your carb'd tank and it is a direct swap.
