71' LWB Chevy. Transferred the gas tank from cab to frame. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a blazer tank I'm using in the swap but have run into trouble with the height of the tank. It is above the frame rail and to remedy the problem I'll either need to lower the tank 3" or notch out the bed frame channel. Anyone been here before? Can't really afford to ditch what I have to buy the proper kit unless I can find a buyer for a plastic blazer tank from that era. If the tank is only 12" inches off the ground will that pose any issues or concerns?
