1969 Camaro/Firebird LS and LT EFI Fuel Tank Kit with 400 LPH Pump
When installing a modern LS or LT powerplant in a 1969 Chevy Camaro or Pontiac Firebird, stock fuel tanks quickly reach their limits in flow and capacity. This EFI fuel tank assembly replaces the original with a steel unit engineered to match factory mounting points and underbody contours while delivering a reliable supply through its 400 LPH pump. Builders can trust that every component from straps to the sending unit has been included for direct installation and sustained fuel delivery under demanding road and track conditions. By placing the pump inside the tank, it remains cooled by surrounding fuel and maintains suction even during hard cornering forces.
Factory Mount Fitment for 1969 Camaro and Firebird LS and LT Conversions
This fuel tank kit reproduces the original underbody geometry of 1969 Chevy Camaro and Pontiac Firebird frames, ensuring a direct bolt in installation without cutting or modifying the floor pan. By aligning precisely with factory mounting points and recesses, it preserves chassis integrity and ride height while eliminating common clearance conflicts with brake lines and exhaust components. Builders benefit from a restoration quality fit that sustains proper fuel line angles and prevents tank movement under dynamic loads. The result is a seamless integration of modern LS or LT powerplants into classic sheet metal, maintaining both appearance and structural alignment.
In Tank Pump Cooling and Suction Stability Under Cornering
Placing the 400 LPH Walbro pump inside the reservoir allows constant fuel immersion, which keeps operating temperatures low and virtually eradicates vapour formation during hard throttle runs. Because the pump sits at the lowest point of the tank, it maintains a reliable supply even when lateral forces shift fuel away from the outlet. This design also reduces noise and vibration transmitted to the chassis compared to external assemblies, enhancing driver comfort on spirited road and track sessions. Integrated electrical connections and sealed connectors further simplify routing and reduce potential leak paths.
Structural Steel Construction Built for Road and Track Conditions
Fabricated from high-grade steel, the replacement tank offers exceptional resistance to impacts from road debris and environmental corrosion. Its reinforced walls and precision formed contours deliver rigidity that maintains shape under stress, preventing deformation that can lead to leaks or pump misalignment. Zinc-plated straps and hardware protect against surface rust, ensuring reliable performance over time in both humid climates and salt-treated winter roads. This robust construction supports demanding engine outputs and the rigours of competition without compromising longevity.
Comprehensive Fuel System Kit Streamlines Installation
Everything needed for a complete swap is included, from the calibrated sending unit to the filler neck and vent filter, eliminating the need for additional parts sourcing. Molded gaskets crafted from nitrile rubber deliver secure seals that resist ethanol blends, while precision-bent tank straps and mounting hardware align with factory holes for effortless assembly. Builders gain confidence knowing that each component has been validated for fit and function in 1969 Camaro and Firebird applications. This all-in-one approach allows focus on wiring and tuning rather than hunting for missing parts, shortening project times and minimizing installation frustration.
