Re: Bucketlist Blazer -Restomod build 6.6liter L8T

Last minute addition. I added the -8AN fitting to the front passenger side of the tank to allow easy draining when needed. There will be either a cap installed or a fitting with tube ran high up. The tube will allow me to drain fuel right into a gas can whenever I want to. It will normally just sit unused. I really debated this but decided that having the ability to drain the tank easily is better than not having the ability. This way I can get 99.99% of the fuel out when I need to. The aluminum surrounding the bung is drawing heat out of the hot welded metal.

An additional benefit is that if I wanted to or needed to, the return line could be plumbed here since it is at the very bottom and would be submerged. That would allow me to run a third fuel pump if I ever wanted to run a gazillion pounds of boost! Lol!







I posted a quick video to youtube for folks that are looking for an answer of what to replace their broken or lost factory u-bolt for the tank straps. Posting it here in case someone finds their way to my build. This is also a place for me to document my journey. I still look back at my old builds to find answers to things that I built a long time ago.
