67' rebuilding the mistress..

doing parts collection, and prep before i tear down the truck from running condition.. i have decided to keep the in-cab tank instead of doing the conversion to the spare tire well.. the one concern i have is i have been told that if these trucks happen to roll, gas will go all over the cab and driver.. my question is, is there any type of one-way valve that can be installed inline to where i can fill the tank, but not be concerned with fuel coming back out if some sort of accident were to occur.. thanks..

there isnt much you can with the stock tank to help it in a roll over, itll still leak out. id just look in to moving the tank if its a concern

Re: 67' rebuilding the mistress..

it's not that major of a concern, but since i am rebuilding it, i am trying to make it as safe as possible without taking it too far away from stock..
