(2000 Camaro) I am removing the in tank assembly and converting to external single pump. I have made a steel cap to cover the pump hole and use the stock retaining ring. What is a good fuel level sender and gauge that I can use? I will just drill a hole in the steel plate to mount it.
Another problem is that I am using an 8.8 Ford rear with a 4 link which will hit the plastic tank. Has anyone rearranged the sheet metal with the tank brackets, and moved the tank back 6" ?
Another question---there are two fittings on top of the tank. One is white with a tube and the other is black with a tube that goes to the black canister. Can these tubes be blocked off and can I remove the canister? Mostly a drag car. Original engine/trans will not be used along with any of the PCM/body control wiring. I just don't want to smell gas all of the time or have a pressure problem. Thanks!
I went ahead and made room for the stock tank by moving it back 6 inches to have room for the 8.8 pumpkin and upper 4 link bars.
I will clean up the edges, tack weld it in and make a filler for the top. Then I can make a couple of brackets for the front mounts (where the tank strap bolts in). 8.8 Cut lines taped off Cut out complete. One more cut to remove the 6" It's a big hole Where it will be located. Just made the T top storage 6" smaller
Now I don't have to buy a new fuel tank
These are the front fuel tank brackets that the straps bolt to. I made a couple with bolt backing plates and bolted them in to the channel.. I welded nuts on the two little straps. They slide into the channels above the tank, and I bolted the brackets to them.
