Does it fit ? I read on the board our short beds were too short for a blazer tank. I used one from an old camaro I think. Gmcpauls website has a tech tip section and if you can search the archives you should find lots on it. It is a common topic.

I have some photos on my web page of a gas tank that I got from a 62 suburban. Was a bolt in job after removing the spare tire crossmember. Still have not started the project of running the filler over and up into the rear stake pocket and out the tilting taillight. I know a couple of guys are waiting for me to do this, May is the month I will get it done, Danit!!!

the fitting of the gas tank is not what I need.I am wanting to run the fill neck behind the running light on the drivers side bed. Sorry I should have been more clear on this. I saw some pictures on here I think on how a guy did it with s-10 filler neck. Any help on this would be appreciated
