There are some pics up above....I do know that I have PM'd about a dozen people asking about it, LOL!
The tank Inc kit did not fit very well...it is VERY long and need to be cut into a pieces and re-welded, it was not fun but does work well.

ACTUALLY, now with my turbo on the car, I put a SECOND 340 Walbro in there, LOL, now that was difficult! Never going to try to do that again!

Absolutely... I struggled with fitting dual 255's and now a single 450 in my '68 Camaro tank for probably 3-4 months...
Next time I will just spend the money on something already built...

Chicago, did you ever do a write up on the manual speedo conversion? I'm putting one in an 87 Monte Carlo SS, Im trying to get a local machine shop to do it but without good measurements no ones willing to tackle the project.

To be honest, I'm keeping the information and measurements close to my chest. I put in days of engineering as well as bought/built jigs to machine housings. I have a substantial amount of time and money and I offer my services off this site to convert housings. As of now, I've done close to 100 and had nothing but thanks and word of mouth has kept people asking for my services.
