Re: Where did you buy your blazer tank??

I have been looking into the camaro tank conversion. Here is some info I got from Bad70sbchevy. He did it and I think it looks great. I ordered my tank from a company called Tamraz out of IL. They have Canadain tanks. Cost me 194 for the tank, sending unit(compatible with our fuel gauge) straps and an anti squeak kit. Havent recieved it yet but should any day.

Here is the info with links.

Hey, sorry about the wait. I don't think they offer a camaro tank conversion, at least not that I know of. When I did mine it was all a custom job. I went down to NPD and got a 1969 camaro gas tank, fuel cap, the flip down license plate holder or the same year and fuel sender (I believe its the one for the 350 with the 3/8" fuel line). The great thing about this it is 100% compatible with the fuel guage on our trucks. I also got some square tubing and mounted it on the frame rails where I believe the spare tire use to be mounted. I used some 1x2 but it could be different in your case depending on your bumber. I also used 1/8 x 1" metal straps to mount it (i just bent it to the shape of the tank). Also I would suggest using tar paper between the tank and the straps to keep it from squeaking. Best advice if you were to do this is be patient and take your time to do it right. Ive had mine for three months and love it and i would definitely do it again and it does not take long at all to fill unlike the blazer tank. I did mine based off of this post http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=243181 and here are some pics of mine on this thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...78#post4111478 hope this helps and if you have any questions feel free to ask. Good luck with whatever you do.
