Hello,
My project 71-c10 has the bed off. to install the blazer tank, and get the factory pick up incab tank gone..
while I have this apart.. what sized lines should I add to this 70-72 blazer tank.. if I'm to go efi down the line.
tank is new so I can add fuel feeds anywhere , it tank pump would be ideal but not in the cards..
so,when and if I try efi it will be an external pump..
the engine is a 350 now,, with either a hot 355 (500hp) or a 496 (hotter still)
I'm thinking a 1/2 feed with same return use'n the blazer tank return spot (top and to the side of tank) with a bigger inlet (stock looks like 3/8th)
and soldering in a 1/2 feed where the stocker 3/8th" line runs in the sending unit..
or leave that alone and add another fuel feed to the tank.. and use the stock feed for the n.o.s. fuel feed..
if I can't fit another feed beside the stock line. where would be best to add the 2nd bigger fuel feed on the tank..
i'd like to do this once, and have it set up to work with all engines listed and carb and efi
the blazer fill is on the drivers side near the top..
that more than likely will be moved to the top rear so I can add a 80's g body filler neck and hide it behind the bumper plate..
tank will be vented to a charcoal can.. with a non vented cab(at least thats the plan) so I won't have the 70's full spilling out the back of the truck..
yes a fancy efi tank would be nice.. (300.oo+) but I have this tank and I'd like to use it..
as I don't have the 300-500+ clams for a nice SS efi pump in tank ...
IDEAS Welcome...
thanks
