66 Pro Street Build (Domeringer) - Page 9 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

How far back on on the from the front of the frame did you cut it? How did you decide to cut there? I'm currently working on a relatively similar build not nearly as stout but I'm replacing the frame rails and back halfing the truck but I'm leaving the front stub but changing the cross member and suspension.

Hmmm, some pretty nice welds on the aluminum tank!
Still watchin' closely! LOL!

Thanks guys!

Figure'd some of you might like to see how the tanks are fabbed, so I'm going to get a little detailed on how the tanks and fuel system are designed and put together.

The left tank is going to be mainly used for street use. Premium gas and maybe some E85 if we push the tune. Here's the in tank pump I'll use for this system.

The right side tank will be ready for high HP. Race fuels only! It will contain another in tank pump that will only transfer the fuel to a surge tank up front that will contain 2 or three additional pumps to supply fuel bigly

here's an excellent example for reference... RADIUM

I'm going to machine and fab all of components and make my own version... more on that later.

Made a lot of progress this week! Bent up some tube and attached them to the frame for mounting the tanks and started finish welding the tanks. Here's some pics

Hi Scoti... Thank you!

Working on the layout for the fuel pump hangers. Machined some brackets for the pumps.

aggie91 · 02-16-2017, 10:55 AM

Those are nice! Sure beats a hose clamp...lol

Glad to see this truck still going. Sorry for all the annoying questions in the past, I have since done my research and figured things out. I can't wait to see this done. I don't know if a 71 El Camino counts as a truck but I'm gonna start my build thread here thank you for the "truck" inspiration it kept me from going the typical Cameron drag car kind of build.

Hi Isaiah, Thank you! El Camino's are trucks in my eyes... what could be cooler than a car and a pickup in one. I may have a go at one someday. Your questions are not annoying and I look forward to following your build... please be sure to give me the heads up when you get started with the thread.

Have been very busy in my spare time, programming and machining parts for this fuel pump setup. Another weekend of machining and I'll post up some pics...

Will do, so far all I have is about 230 feet of chromoly and a 71 El Camino with a 69 chevelle front clip from vfn once I get some space to start slicing and dicing I'll get a thread going and some progress going.

Isaiah · 05-19-2017, 03:03 PM

Any updates on the truck?

Well yes! Machined all of the parts for the fuel pump hats.... and some extras. After polish they will be sent off to be anodized. Here's some pics... more soon!

aggie91 · 05-22-2017, 10:28 AM

Beautiful parts. Those would look great anodized any color you could come up with!

Thanks Karl.... black

Little update... Cut the tops of the fuel tanks off for Rev A... bolt in fuel pump flange. Also moved things around. Good news... just need to finish mounting the tanks and then on to body work! Put a bed side up there to see if everything was lining up... good to go!

61_FL_Apache · 07-03-2017, 12:30 PM

Looks great Gary!

Thank you very much guys! Hopefully I will have the time to move this along at a faster pace. Happy 4th!

Not much to report on the 66, been a busy summer so far. Bought a tow vehicle this week! "THE 98" Minty fresh!

61_FL_Apache · 08-03-2017, 07:58 PM

Nice!!
