[QUOTE=.
Whats the best way to get around the vacuum operated line from the carb to the petcock - just put a blank off nipple over the vacuum barb on the carb??

You can convert petcock to standard operation by removing the back plate and removing the diaphragm and "button"

A boat outboard motor tank works good. You should be able to borrow one, or pick one up at Wakmart.
