Maybe instead of cutting the frame, a different petcock could be made to fit, or the rear of the tank lifted up, which would be easy to do if you had to make a different tank anyway. The seat could be a bit of an issue though, getting the transition right. Or the petcock could be moved, just weld up the old holes and braze/weld a bung on somewhere.
The idea of cutting a vital component like the frame to achieve an aesthetic modification seems asinine.
