Somebody else just started a Vega swap thread. Same chassis. You should look him up and share info.

Pick up this months issue of Hot Rod Magazine. There's a three page spread on an LS equipped Vega and everything the owner used to do the swap.

How deep is the stock fuel tank for one of those cars? You might be best off looking for new tank (so it can be welded on, as you shouldn`t weld a used tank) and then welding in a new locking ring so that you could use a fuel pump/bucket/sending unit from a newer car.

thats what i told him cause he has 2 cars and ond one has alot of new parts [including a tank] but this is a budget build so all ideals are open i got a few f-body parts lying around so the fuel pump in the tank my first thought but he want's to go with an inline type setup so if we went carb insted of efi easy fix ..
