Looks nice. Is the filler neck going to clear the frame rail?

Tucks up nice and high, hard to see from behind. I can't take credit for this install, other members pioneered this before me.

This is during mock up on a spare bed corner, a great friend made this for me. I certainly couldn't have done it, LOL.

there is a Bosch Pump out there that is OEM that is sometimes called the Bosch "porsche" pump cause it was OEM in some model porched that required 75-100PSI fuel pressure. i have had many friends use them in EFI setups and "Hot Rod Garage" just used oneon their new Camaro LS swap project. OEM quality and Durability. Called a Bosch 444 pump i believe.

Thanks, good info http://realstreetperformance.com/Fue...ison-Test.html


And I'll be checking out that capless filler! I wonder if they wear out though, and if so if they can be repaired?
