Get a Blazer gas tank kit to relocate it to the rear frame rails. LMC and many others list them, it's a popular upgrade,

Go to www.67-72chevytrucks.com there is a guy on that board that builds custom aluminum cells for this swap. Seen pics of his work, looks like quality stuff. Reviews have been good too. I think his handle id is Fuelcellguy

I've got a '71 C-10, and I mounted a pair of GM saddle tanks under it. Left the seat tank anyways, uses diesel now. Hafta make yer own brackets, etc.... but thats the fun part! grin

John, There is a direct fit tank for your truck. It fits between the frame rails in the back where the spare tire mounts. You will have to give up the spare tire location under the truck. The tank is avaliable at CPP, Classic Performance Products. I have one in my 1966 swbss.The tank is pricy, but a direct fit. The web site is www.classicperform.com. Good luck. Ron66
