1965 Pontiac Lemans LS EFI Fuel Tank Kit for A-Body Swap
When installing an LS engine into a 1965 Pontiac Lemans A Body, maintaining reliable fuel flow becomes a top priority and the 1965 Pontiac Lemans EFI Fuel Tank Kit - 255 LPH Pump addresses this with precision fit hardware. Installation relies on original strap locations and stock filler neck alignment, which preserves chassis geometry and avoids cutting frame rails or fabricating brackets. Featuring a Walbro 255 LPH pump inside the tank, the system keeps fuel temperatures in check and prevents vapor lock during spirited acceleration. Accurate calibration of the sending unit delivers precise level readings to the factory gauge cluster for confident refueling decisions.
Direct Fit Integration Preserving Factory Geometry
The fuel tank kit is crafted to align exactly with the 1965 Pontiac Lemans original strap mounts and stock filler neck configuration to preserve the chassis shape and underbody clearance. By using the factory pad locations, installers avoid rail cutting or bracket fabrication that can introduce fit issues or weaken frame integrity. This direct fit approach not only maintains the classic silhouette of the A Body chassis but also ensures a rattle free installation that stands up to road vibration. It accelerates project timelines by eliminating custom fabrication steps and reduces the chance of alignment errors. The result is a secure assembly that maintains the vehicle's original geometry and visual authenticity.
Immersion Cooled Pump for Consistent Fuel Pressure
At the heart of this kit is a Walbro 255 liter per hour pump rated to serve up to 550 horsepower engines. The pump sits fully submerged in the tank so that surrounding fuel absorbs heat generated during operation, a design that prevents vapor lock even under spirited driving conditions. Continuous immersion also cuts down on cavitation and air seepage when the throttle transitions rapidly from idle to wide open. This stable flow ensures the engine gets the fuel volume it demands without starving out or introducing lean spikes. Overall, users will notice crisper throttle response and sustained pressure consistency for both street runs and track days.
Precision Sending Unit for Reliable Gauge Readings
The calibrated sending unit in this kit employs a float and sensor assembly engineered to mirror the resistance curve of the original gauge cluster. This careful matching means every change in fuel level shows up accurately on the dash gauge, eliminating the guessing game common with older mechanical setups. Accurate readings help drivers plan longer trips without worrying about sudden fuel drops and support detailed fuel mapping for engine tuning. Integration with the stock wiring harness is seamless, which keeps the dash looking stock and makes the electrical hook up straightforward. Built quality and precise calibration make this sending unit a silent yet critical contributor to a reliable fuel system.
Complete US Made Fuel System Kit for Easy Assembly
This comprehensive kit brings together every component needed for a full EFI conversion on a 1965 Lemans without sourcing parts from multiple vendors. Included are the in tank pump module, calibrated sending unit, tank straps, replacement filler neck, vent filter, molded gaskets and all required mounting hardware. Each component is manufactured in the United States to strict quality standards, ensuring precise fit and consistent performance. By bundling these parts, the system reduces hours spent cross referencing and ordering and eliminates mismatched thread types or seal materials. Installers benefit from a streamlined process that preserves the Lemans underbody appearance and delivers reliable service from day one.
