Here is a pic.

I also have a 4 link so I'm not concerned as I don't have any side to side movement.

Rooster-

I don't recall. My frame uses a modified G-body frame and I looked through catalogs to find something from a G-body that had the correct filler location. I had to cut the filler neck down. Mine fills from behind the license plate. I also sent the tank out Rockvalley and had a fuel pump retrofitted inside it. This is because I'm running an LT1.

Thanks
Marc

Please more info on the brakes and spindles in the front.
