Re: Project Black Hole For Money

Your gas tank is a 25 Gal and if you want you can get a sending unit out of an 87-91 25 Gal tank that is set up for EFI. This gives you the fittings for an in tank pump for the 5.3L motor. You will need to get the correct PSI pump for your motor but it will all snap together and you end up with a factory in tank pump set up and have the correct sending unit for your fuel gauge. I will try and find the right part numbers for the sending unit and pump. PM me if you need them and then you can post it up if you want.
I used this same tank in my LowBuck truck build as well as LFD's 4 door Tahoe build. Search for info on mounting and what not.

Re: Project Black Hole For Money

Had a good shop day today. I installed a PS box (easy) and started to mock up my blazer tank install. For my tank, I had to remove 2 rear frame braces so the tank and skid plate would fit. Check out the pics and give me some feedback. I think I'm on the right track but I really don't know.

Thanks
