Searched for another thread on this, but very surprisingly did not find what I was looking for..
I have a '76 stocker that I am preparing for my 16 year old son to drive. Its pretty reliable at this point, but I am adding some safety and reliability things to it at this point. Cage, 3 pt belts, etc. don't expect to see any serious wheeling or anything, mostly driving to school, etc.
It currently has dual tanks, stock 302 and (new) mechanical fuel pump. I would like to swap the duals out for an oversize aftermarket tank, and I'm looking for some advice. Here are some thoughts concerns:
- like the types that bolt in and can accommodate a future body lift
- want to keep the stock fuel lines and mechanical fuel pump if possible
- want it to have an accurate fuel sender that works with the stock gauge
Is this feasible with any of the vendor tanks? Any tank particularly suited to this application? Anything I should be cognizant of when purchasing / installing?
Thanks,
Jeff
