Your gunna have a really bad time trying to get it done with those. Just my opinion.
The gas tank is really not that bad to get out of the bottom of the car if you have the plastic tank. Just be patient. I can drop mine in like 20 min.

Or use a drimel with the little cutoffs if you want more precision. Probably will go through a few blades.
Mine was windowed before I bought the car. I just pulled the arm again (Metal Tank retrofitted in mine) to replace the Dual 340s with Dual 525s. Though none of that is relevant to the question asked. If it were me, I would drop the tank and not cut the car.
A Dremel would be a lot of time and a 4" grinder would be a lot of sparks. I'll tell you that you would not be happy trying to do all of the things you really wanted to do with stock 1st time everything. Mine already has #8 Feed and #6 Return. Dealing with all of that crap at the front makes the door bigger than you think and if any wires or that plastic factory line were cut that would **** me off...a lot!
If you do it a cut off wheel with a small grinder is likely the best option
