Fuel cell install info needed - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sometime after Christmas I am going to be removing the old tank from the cab and putting in a fuel cell. Truck is a 68 1/2 swb fleet side. I want to run the filler on the drivers side a few inches away from the side marker light. What I am looking for is info from anyone who has done this swap. What kind of issues did you run into? How did you run new hard line to the existing lines? How many feet of fuel line did you end up having to buy? How did you run your sender wire for the new tank? Did you have to buy a external pump or was the original sufficient?

Thanks

Yeah Me Too! I'm Gonna Put A Tank In The Back And I Want The Filler To Come Out Behind The Left Rear Tire On The Side Of The Bed. Are You Gonna Hide The Filler In The Side Marker?

I was planning on getting a fuel door welded into the side a few inches away from the fuel marker.
