Re: Anyone have install pics of a 1969 Nova Tank??

Found this through a google search:

The tube filler is the different and I'm was informed by National Parts Depot that they don't interchange.. The 67-69 Camaro tanks are completely different than the 73/74 Nova tank.

Crosstraining has a 72 and I have a 70 which are very similar. 73-74 appears to be siginificantly deeper than the 68-72. Here is a quick reference I made (these are Spectre part#s/ tanks)

Application Dimensions Part# Capacity
68 Camaro 39-3/8"x20-7/8"x7-3/4" GM 32B 18 gal
69 Camaro 39-3/8"x20-7/8"x7-3/4" GM 32B 18 gal
70 Nova 38" x 19-3/8" x 7-3/8" GM 46D 18 gal
72 Nova 38" x 19-3/8" x 7-3/8" GM 46C 18 gal
73 Nova 39-5/8"x21-1/4"x10-1/4" GM 2 21 gal

The camaro tanks are very similar in dimensions and have a rear exiting filler. They are minor changes in the 68-72 nova tanks, but it appears they are the same basic stamping, the same goes for the 67-69 camaros. My thought was to take either a Tanks inc or spectre fuel injection tank for a camaro, cut off the neck, and weld on my old filler neck. would probably need to modify the tank straps as well. I am just not to that point in my project yet.

So, they're essentially the same tank.
