1970 Chevy Nova EFI Fuel Tank Kit with 400 LPH Pump (LS/LT Swap)
When fitting an LS or LT powerplant into a classic 1970 Chevy Nova, ensuring reliable fuel supply is a top priority and the 1970 Nova EFI Fuel Tank Kit with 400 LPH Pump meets that need by retaining the stock tank footprint. This stainless steel tank uses stock mounting points and the original filler neck location to simplify installation. An integrated regulator and vent filter hold system pressure steady under load while the factory grade sending unit delivers accurate fuel level readings. Designed to support forced induction setups and engines over 550 horsepower, the 400 LPH pump keeps flow consistent to prevent fuel starvation during extended wide open throttle runs.
Precision Fit for 1970 Nova Chassis and Stock Components
When integrating an LS or LT powerplant into a 1970 Nova, preserving the original tank footprint removes the need for custom brackets or filler neck modifications. This design uses factory mounting points and the OE filler location, so installers can drop in the replacement tank with minimal chassis alterations. The precision alignment reduces installation time and ensures that strain on straps and mounting hardware stays within the intended limits of the chassis. By retaining stock geometry, body clearance and ride height remain unaffected and fuel system alignment meets factory tolerances. This approach benefits restorers and performance builders alike by marrying modern fuel delivery with the classic lines of the Nova.
400 LPH Walbro Pump Fuel Delivery for High Demand Engines
The heart of the kit is a Walbro pump rated at 400 liters per hour that provides the volume required by supercharged motors and powerplants beyond 550 hp. By situating the pump inside the tank module, the system achieves efficient suction and reduced noise, helping maintain stable flow under acceleration. This configuration prevents starvation during hard launches or extended full throttle operation on track or strip and supports consistent pressure at the rail. It also lowers fuel temperature by minimizing return lines, preserving consistent density under load. The result is uninterrupted fuel delivery that keeps boost and power steady, even in demanding driving sessions.
Integrated Pressure Regulation and Vent Filtering for Consistent Performance
A built in regulator holds system pressure at the correct setting, allowing tuners to dial in ideal air fuel ratios without worrying about pressure spikes or drops. The included vent filter removes debris and separates air from fuel vapor, reducing the chance of vapor lock in high heat or heavy load situations. This dual control approach ensures throttle response remains smooth whether cruising around town or pushing the engine at the limit. By combining regulation and filtration in one module, the system simplifies plumbing and reduces leak points. Builders gain confidence that the tank will maintain stable performance over a wide range of operating conditions.
Stainless Steel Construction and AN Fittings for Enhanced Durability
The tank is fabricated from stainless steel to resist corrosion from ethanol blends and road salts, ensuring it stays free of pitting and contamination over time. Robotic welding and precision machining of AN ports provide reliable, leak proof connections that withstand vibration and thermal cycles. These high grade materials and assembly methods offer durability that outlasts stamped steel alternatives and minimize maintenance. Gaskets and hardware supplied with the kit complete the seal and simplify the final assembly, letting builders focus on performance rather than fuel system upkeep. This combination yields a robust solution for both street driven and competitive vehicles.
