1971-1972 Chevy Nova EFI Fuel Tank Kit with 255 LPH Pump for LS Swap
Swapping an LS engine into a 1971 or 1972 Chevy Nova or Ventura starts with reliable fuel delivery and this EFI tank kit with its 255 LPH pump answers that need for builds up to 550 horsepower. Built to fit the factory mounting points on the Nova X-Body frame, it positions the pickup at the ideal depth to guard against fuel starvation during hard acceleration and sustained cornering. Complete hardware, from tank straps and vent filter to gaskets and American made fittings, arrives ready to install. Precision in design and craftsmanship deliver consistency and service you can depend on in every drive.
Precision Fitment for 1971 and 1972 Nova X Body Chassis
This EFI fuel tank kit is engineered specifically for the 1971 and 1972 Chevy Nova X body frame, matching original mounting points to simplify installation. By retaining stock strap positions and filler neck alignment, it eliminates the need for custom brackets or major alterations to the frame. The exact footprint preserves chassis integrity and maintains factory clearance under the rear apron. Foam-backed straps cradle the tank, absorbing road shock and vibration while keeping the assembly firmly in place.
255 LPH Walbro Pump Delivering Consistent Flow up to 550 HP
At the heart of the system lies a 255 LPH Walbro pump designed to support engine builds up to 550 horsepower without flow drop off. Installed below the fuel level, the pump benefits from liquid cooling to resist vapor lock and reduce cavitation that can disrupt pressure under heavy load. The steady output ensures stable rail pressure, improving throttle response and combustion consistency. Whether road cruising or hard cornering, the pump maintains a uniform supply that keeps ECU feedback accurate and engine operation smooth.
Integrated In Tank Module for Leak Resistance and Clean Operation
The in tank module combines the pump, sending unit and filter in a sealed housing with reinforced sealing surfaces to prevent leaks over time. A precision float assembly delivers reliable fuel level readings to the dash, avoiding false alarms during spirited driving. A dedicated vent filter blocks dust and debris from entering the tank, protecting both pump and injectors from contamination. This unified assembly reduces the number of separate parts, saving bench time and minimizing potential failure points.
Optimized Pickup Depth Preventing Fuel Starvation in Aggressive Driving
This kit positions the pickup tube at the ideal depth to maintain a full fuel supply even during rapid acceleration or sustained cornering forces. Less optimized tanks can allow fuel to slosh away from the pump inlet, risking temporary starvation and lean spikes under load. By engineering the pickup location to match real world driving dynamics, the system ensures uninterrupted delivery in all conditions. The result is consistent power output without surging or hesitation, giving builders confidence in the reliability of their LS swap.
