I've got a 70 chevy lwb and am looking to move the gas tank from behind the seat to under the truck. what kind of gas tank would i use and who sells the cheapest ones? and if i were to go to a junk yard, what year trucks would i look for? and does anyone on the board have one for sale? so many questions so little time. THANKS GUYS!

Chevyguy,
not trying to sound smart but search the board and you will find a wealth of info on this subject. The best thing(i think) to do is to by a new blazer tank. it will fit right where the spare tire use to be. Many of our vendors carry these for about 250 dollars. Good luck |

THE BLAZER TANKS NECK IS BENT TO GO AROUND THE LEAF SPRINGS, YOU NEED A TANK OUT OF 67 - 72 BURBAN, GET THE STRAPS, TOO.
I DID THIS TO MY 70. I DID USED THE FILLER NECK FROM A BLAZER WELDED RIGHT INTO MY BEDSIDE, AND YOU HAVE TO EXTEND THE WIRE TO THE SENDING UNIT FOR THE GAUGE, AND REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER. EMAIL IF YOU NEED MORE NFO
