You could move the tank to the rear, behind the rear axle. I installed a NASCAR-type fuel cell in a friend's 66 Mustang because he was a little spooked by the stories of rear end wreck fires, and there are several sizes of them that can be adapted to the S-10 frame easily. They're also fairly inexpensive.
