Gas tank????

I am wanting to move my tank to the back, but I really don't want to go with a burb tank or blazer tank.
You think I can use thishttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2414635208&category=33556

How much room is there to work with in the back of these trucks, I am out at work, cant get out to measure it right now, was wondering if some one already knew?
Sam

Well at a show i seen a 71 C-10 with the tank in ther rear where the spare tire went, The guy told me it was about a 20 gal tank out of a oldsmobil he though about a 78 or 79. with little modifications, he ran the nozel out the flip down licence plate in rear

Not sure if that helps

Sure, you can use it, but you'll have to use a Ford fuel guage too. The sending unit has a different ohm output.

I used this aluminum fuel cell from Summit, RCI-2200AS. It is $189. The tank fits in the space where the spare tire was. You can see pics of the install at: http://photos.yahoo.com/cruzn72@pacbell.net
