Re: Doing LS Swap - I have no idea what I'm doing!

Well, back for another update. I'm on the "extended plan", obviously.

For some backstory over the last several weeks - I had started a new job about 9 months ago. This summer, the company decided to relocate my group out of state to another facility - but, they were not taking anyone. So, the last couple of months I was on the job hunt. What that did provide - was some time to get into the garage (after school started, of course).

I finished my fuel tank mount and got the tank ready to mount under the bed. I measured and ran the fuel lines from the engine back to where the tank will mount. Next, I'll need to test fit the tank again, so I can figure out where I'm going to install the fill hose and vent. Once I get that figured out, the fuel system should be done - minus the wiring hookup for the fuel pump.

My idea for the fill neck - I purchased 2 ammo boxes (metal) that I was going to mount behind the wheel wells in the bed. I thought I could use one for storage (small stuff) and run the filler neck/hose up into the other ammo box. I'm just not sure how to get all of that stuff to work together (yet). There is going to be some fabrication of some sort. Since I'm using a Jeep Wrangler tank for my setup, I just imagined I could buy a Wrangler fuel door kit (although I need to look for ideas). My tank has a 1" filler hose size, so I figure I'd need something similar on the other end to match up. Anyone have any ideas?
