Moving tank out of cab and between the frame rails?
I know a lot of guys are doing this but I'm not sure what the trick is and if you are using 'burban tanks or what. Can someone fill me in? I thought I was going to use a fuel cell in the back but I'm not sure anymore. Thanks!

I used the kit from LMC in my 67 GMC. Worked great with minimal fabrication. Had to drill a few new holes but that was it for the most part.

I want to fab in a tank myself to keep the costs down.

Heck, the LMC kit that has everything except fuel line (I believe) is a little over $200, which I don't think is bad.

$200 is a lot when I can take a $40 tank and fab it in myself. That's half the fun.

Re: Moving tank out of cab and between the frame rails?
I went to go buy one and the guy told me a tank out of a 67-69 ford mustang/ cougar tan fits just as good. Im really happy about how it turned out, had to cut about 1 inch out of the inside of the frame rails, and its only about 1inch or 2inches hangin below the frame and its only two gallons smaller than the blazer tanks
