Re: Need idea on frame swap

You can use your stock tank if you run a 1980 Datsun 280zx (Nissan) external Fuel pump, Available at Advance Auto Parts, p/n E8312.. $102.99. (online price) http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...lVehicle=false You don't have to run a return line to the tank, you just put a "T" in the line before the pump and it sucks it back into the fuel supply line.

Re: Need idea on frame swap
Hm, never heard of using that pump--interesting. If you do end up buying from them, use the code 'VISA' at checkout for massive savings...

Re: Need idea on frame swap
or you can use the tank out of a 99 burb and wire it up with a relay........just match fuel tank with the engine you are swapping. Tank will have the sender, fuel pump and return lines
