I have a 1970 C10 350 V8 fleetside shortbed. Can anyone tell me if there will be any problems arising if i were to relocate my gas tank to the top of the bed? Can i just be able to extend my fuel line and electrical wiring and connect it to the sending unit without running into any more problems? I need some advice on this before starting this project. Will i be messing with pressure or having to replace the fuel pump?
Fuel tank can be anywhere you want it. During the "gas shortage" in the early 70's they sold a lot of tool boxes where the top 6 inches held tools and the bottom held thirty gallons (or more) gas or diesel. Many farm trucks have a bed mounted tank that is for both the truck and also has a hand pump to fill tanks on other equipment.
Why?..... Never mind. Yeah, that will work, just be sure to secure it well..... and anything you might want to haul.
The tool box / tank idea sounds intriguing . I know it's safer to put it underneath but my in cab one works fine...... If I get hit and burn to death , remind me then I was an idiot .
