Just out of curiosity, what are you using for a fuel gauge? I know the ohms are different between an old vehicle and a newer one.

No where near that yet ....


But more that likely, a programmable Guage set, like the Dakota VHX serious, for example.


I need to get back to this. .thank for the motivation, guys .... :lol:

Looking good John, Estate Wagons had 22 gallon tank, side fill, looks identical. I used the side fill from 93 Caprice on my panel, Don't know if you have a plan for how yours will fill. Keeping the side fill option? Your welding is Stout. Front and back are rock solid. Going to be a sweet ride.....Ed

Thanks man ...

I plan on piping the tank to the original side fill.

Man....Did I fall asleep at the wheel on this one !!!

I still have this thing .. currently in my container, as life took over.

When I do get back on it, I will be changing directions and going 4wd...so I will have a running LT1 chassis available to whoever is interested.

Thanks
