Re: Gas tank straps
Tank supports\straps are still available from GM. You might have to ask for straps for an 87, but they are all the same and do fit. They are expensive, almost $50 each but worth every penny. A little note here, it's easier to install them on the tanks first if you weld studs into the bolt holes first. Trying to get those danm straps around the tank and getting the strap nuts started is impossible.Jim
