1962-1965 Chevy II/Nova X-Body EFI Fuel Tank Kit for LS Swap
Fitting an LS powerplant into a 1962 through 1965 Chevy II or Nova chassis demands a fuel system that can keep pace and this kit delivers a 255 LPH Walbro pump inside a steel reservoir with corrosion guard. Precisely shaped to mirror original tank contours it secures with factory mounts and aligns the sending unit harness for true gauge accuracy. Technicians appreciate the inclusion of mounting straps and hardware that simplify installation while preserving the chassis structure under full throttle. Every detail reflects dedication to reliable EFI performance in classic Chevy projects.
Authentic OEM Contour Matching
The fuel tank's shape has been meticulously crafted to mirror the original contours of 1962–1965 Chevy II and Nova X-Body models, allowing it to secure directly to the factory mounting points without alteration. This precise fit ensures that the sending unit aligns flawlessly with the stock gauge harness, preserving accurate fuel level readings and maintaining the car's authentic underbody appearance. Installers benefit from reduced labor time since there's no need for notch cutting or custom brackets, and the chassis structure remains unmodified for both strength and originality. By replicating the OEM geometry, the tank upholds clearances around suspension and exhaust components, providing peace of mind during spirited driving.
Integrated In Tank Walbro Module for Steady Fuel Delivery
At the core of this EFI solution is a 255 LPH Walbro pump fully enclosed within the reservoir, a layout that limits heat soak and virtually eliminates vapor lock under load. Positioned in the lowest point of the tank, the module uses an internal check valve to maintain prime after shutdown, ensuring reliable restarts even when fuel levels are low. Engineered to support up to 550 hp, this high-flow pump sustains consistent volume and pressure at wide-open throttle, which translates to smooth throttle response and no risk of fuel starvation. The compact design also keeps installation clean, with no external pump hangers or extra brackets required.
Heavy Gauge Steel with Corrosion Protection
Formed from thick-walled American-made steel, the tank features precision TIG welds that stand up to chassis flex and road vibrations without cracking or leaking. Each seam and shell panel is treated with a moisture-resistant coating that repels road salt, water intrusion, and debris, providing long-term rust prevention in every climate. The uniform wall thickness not only reinforces structural integrity but also helps dampen resonance from the fuel slosh, reducing noise under acceleration. Reinforced support ears maintain shape under load, ensuring that the tank continues to fit exactly as intended for years of dependable service.
Comprehensive Kit Components for Simplified Installation
This all-inclusive package eliminates the hassle of sourcing multiple parts by bundling the calibrated sending unit, stainless steel tank straps, filler neck, vent filter, gaskets and mounting hardware in one kit. Each component is precision engineered to interface seamlessly with the reservoir and stock fuel lines, cutting down on installation errors and return visits. The included straps are pre-formed for the X-Body frame rails, and the vent filter prevents debris from entering the system during fueling. Together, these elements streamline the retrofit process for both professional shops and home builders, delivering a turnkey upgrade that supports a reliable LS swap in classic Chevy II and Nova platforms.
