Alternative to '69 Camaro rear fuel tank?

I purchased a fuel tank kit from CPP for a '69 camaro, which I've seen folks install nicely with a fold-down license plate fill location.

The tank is on backorder for another month.

Has anyone used a different tank with similar results? Nova, Barracuda, Mustang?

If I need to wait, I need to wait...but I frankly don't care what the tank is from, so long as it is set up for EFI and can be made to fill through the rear license plate area.

Thoughts?

Their estimated ship date is 6/6 for an EFI tank. Must be everyone gets them from the same overseas connection.

Are there pics on here from your install by chance? I fully expect to figure it out myself when it arrives, and I’ve seen a few pics here and there….but feedback on how it went, or few pictures would be helpful and appreciated.

Thank you!

Not a great pic but a pic.
I did the 69 Camaro tank because I really didn't want to put a hole my bed.
I used a 87 Monte Carlo license plate fold down mount.

I was mistaken - it was a Firebird - probably same as Camero
Sorry

Used tanks inc universal truck EFI tank. Fits frame hole perfectly in a 66, and rides flush with the top of frame. Needs a fill hole in bed though
