Gas tank

Anyone know of a good not to expensive aftermarket gas tank that will fit between the rails of our 72 Chevy?I was looking at one from summit but i dont know if i can connect a hose to relocate the filler neck it looks like i would have to cut a hole in the bed and dont want to do that.Any help would be appreciated.
THANKS ALEX

Re: Gas tank

try useing one from a newer blazer or suburban an the filler neck will go out past the side of the frame rail an you can run up in between the bedsides an make a little hinge for a side marker light an put the filler behind the marker lens on the side of the bed

Re: Gas tank

I run a 73 up blazer tank in my 72. I moved the filler neck over to the driver side and hooked it up to the original tank fill hose.
