Like Pat says but I would also advise;
1) Make sure vent is adequate for fuel draw. Otherwise you will create a vacuum and will be forever chasing a fuel starvation problem.
2) It's best that the vent does not aloow fuel to spill out freely in the unfortunate case that your car is upside down for any reason, leading to you burning alive 'till your dead.
