If you are building something other than a ratrod.... An S10 tank is close but the filler neck needs to be relocated on the tank. If building a ratrod... No advice. Bad word in these forums. Sent from my LG-H343 using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
It would be the earlier on for carbureted trucks. We put one in my brothers 51. If I can find the photos I will post them. Sent from my LG-H343 using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Several tanks will fit behind the rear axle, between the frame rails. You can bring the gas filler up behind the license plate, or put a 90 (PVC plastic elbow and a couple hoses with clamps works) in the fill tube and bring it to either side above the taillight. A Dakota tank would almost fit in the original position. Gene
Buy the 85 S10 sending unit with the lowest fuel pump pressure available, then get a pressure regulator that will reduce the pressure to 3-5 lbs. Then pick up an aftermarket fuel gauge to match the S10 sending unit. You may also need to run a return fuel line from the regulator to the tank. I know it sucks to spend the money, but this way, you will have a tank, pump, and gauge that all work together. Gene
