Re: dropping a gas tank

run it almost empty .

start spraying hardware with oil / lube / p.b. blaster / liquid wrench .

floor jack with good size pad on it like plywood .

few new hose clamps for stockers that will prob fall apart if you live anywere near the rust belt .

16mm and 18mm line wrench for hose fittings . there NOT included in most line wrench sets .

ACDELCO https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...301117&jsn=491 pump and sock is what you want to put inside when you do it . sock https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...301117&jsn=507

and if your looking to bump performance now or later go with a bigger pump like this 1995 454 c30 pump https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo...034569&jsn=667 holds higher pressure .

the stock tbi pump was lucky to hit let alone hold the 13-15 psi they should run . lots of guys bump up to the later 454 pump and have good results . its also plug and play no mods required to install it .

some guys with older beaters or off road trucks cut a hole in the bed to make a acssess port for the sender .
