LS EFI Fuel Tank Kit with 255 LPH Pump for 1971-1972 Chevy Monte Carlo
When fitting an LS engine swap into a Monte Carlo from 1971 and 1972, reliable fuel delivery starts with the correct tank design and this EFI Fuel Tank Kit addresses that need head on. Its notched shape contours to the A Body frame rails, clearing exhaust runs and securing uniform seating without extra brackets. The included 255 LPH pump maintains steady flow under load and allows quick access for service without dropping the tank.
Tank Geometry Optimized for Monte Carlo A Body
The tank's molded shape follows the contours of the Monte Carlo A Body frame rails to deliver a precise fit that removes any guesswork during installation. Purposeful notches align with the vehicle's exhaust routing to prevent heat buildup and avoid interference with the suspension and tire assemblies. This tailored geometry maintains correct fuel line placement and secures the unit in a uniform position without the need for extra brackets. As a result, installers can preserve the car's underbody layout and reduce the time spent on test fitting and trimming.
255 LPH Pump Reliability Under High Power Output
At the heart of this system lies a 255 LPH Walbro pump engineered to support engine outputs up to 550 horsepower by providing consistent flow even under rapid throttle changes. Its internal design sustains stable pressure to prevent fuel starvation during hard acceleration or sustained cornering forces. Installing the pump inside the tank also offers built in noise reduction and minimizes the risk of vapor lock in hot operating environments. By matching pump capacity to the demands of an LS engine, the kit upholds reliable fuel rail pressure which is vital for precise engine tuning.
Quick Pump Access Via Notched Tank Profile
The unique notch in the tank profile provides direct access to the pump assembly without lowering the entire unit. By simply removing the retaining ring, a technician can lift out the module in minutes for inspection, maintenance or upgrading the pump. This streamlined access method reduces labor hours and eliminates the need to lower the tank for routine service intervals. In hot conditions, the ability to quickly reach the pump module also helps to prevent heat related wear on fuel delivery components.
Complete Fuel System Kit for Simplified Assembly
Beyond the tank and pump, this kit delivers a complete set of components-sending unit, filler neck, vent filter, gaskets, straps and all required mounting hardware-to ensure a turnkey installation. Each part has been selected to work together, avoiding compatibility issues that often arise when sourcing pieces individually. The sending unit interfaces directly with standard gauge fittings, removing the need for adapters or splicing. With everything included in one package, installers can finalize the fuel system without additional parts runs or last minute adjustments.
