Piece of cake My truck is a 61 so plenty of room. Took about 4 hours to install and plumb tank. used all new components. 69 Camaro tank with big block sending unit (it has the larger fuel line and the return line), 69 Camaro spring loaded tag bracket, 57 Chevy gas tank straps (cause I already had them), Couple pieces 1" square tubing for cross braces. You need to add a resistor in the fuel sending circuit to correct the fuel gauge don't remember what ohms it was but found the info on line. The tank I took out was near new if anyone needs it it's free must pick up cannot ship due to contains gas. I did this about 6 months ago and drive the truck everyday working great.
