Mark worked with me and the dimension's I requested, provided a sketch before starting and pics as thing's progressed.

From everything I've read he is the man! Nobody can beat his quality, by the way I have a 72' Chevy Truck long bed with a 6" lift and I was wondering where's the best place to re-locate the tank? I like the way yours is setup, but can't tell by the pictures where its at in the frame...
Thanks,

Jon,
If you drive your truck on the road, you might not want my tank set up, it's only 18 gallons.

18 gallons is plenty for a weekend out wheeling but I'd want more capacity if it were for a street ride.

The fuel cell fills the stock tank spot but doesn't drop the 7.5's below the frame like a factory tank does.

It sits just forward of the rear most cross member.

Maybe this pic shows placement better.

heidesign,
I use .125 thick aluminum, the tanks are baffled and the sending unit is standard 0-90 ohms however, I can get pretty much and ohm rating you need. Thanks, Mark

Re: Fuel Cell Guy
Hope this finds you all well. I have a 20 gallon fuel cell and I want to know of an affordable (fuel line) kit, for lack of a better word, to run it on my '73 frame.What exactly do I need to hook it up to a 283 SBC(1967)??? Any information would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks,
el_bole

It would be best to send him a private message to make sure he sees your request. This is a very old post and I doubt he will look in it.
