Default Tanks Inc kit?

For those who have this, what do you think of it? Is it a good solution? Easy installation? Any hidden installations requirements?
I'm seriously considering buy this kit to replace my NOISY POS external pump that requires me to have a 1/2 to 3/4 full gas tank in my 1972 Chevelle. This looks like a great solution for those who can't afford a Rock Valley. Thoughts? Thanks!

It is a great kit if you have a deep enough tank to take the pump module. You also have to cut your tank and weld on a plate that would hold the pump.My tank was very shallow so it took alot of cutting to get the pump module to fit right. I have some pics in my homepage

Schitzo did a nice job on his. This is a good thread: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ight=fuel+tank

I will be running a '95 Impala tank w/ racetronix pump kit.

What Schitzo did looks like the way to go. Definately may go that route.

I still i like what u did better. Plus, with the Tanks Inc kit, you get a quality, hi performance pump that I will be needing. The way u did it just seems like the great way to go.
