Yes, a blazer poly tank kit will fit. You will have a little fab work to set up the fill spout, but here is a link... http://www.classicheartbeat.com/cata...tank%20kit.htm

i have seen flip out sidemarkers, flipdown taillites, gas door welded to the side of the body......lots of innovative ideas! If you check classic heartbeat site, there should be pics on the side marker fill..... http://www.classicheartbeat.com/mark...t_gas_door.htm

I havent installed 1 yet, but have been lookin at the kit pretty hard! From what I undersand , the tank hangs about 5-6" below the rails......does also stick up above the rails,requiring some trimming on 1 of the bed rails. Ill leave the details to the guys that have "been there" (dont want to steer you crooked!)....good luck......crazy man
