At its core the in-tank module features a 255 LPH Walbro pump immersed in fuel to stay cool and respond quickly. A calibrated sending unit tank straps filler neck vent filter gaskets and all installation hardware arrive together for simpler setup. Rated to support LS engines up to 550 horsepower this kit maintains steady EFI operation and prevents vapor lock under spirited driving. Installers will appreciate the accurate fit detailed guidance and durable parts built for enduring operation.
Notched Tank Geometry
Notched Tank Geometry allows for precise clearance with exhaust pipes and wider tires. The recessed section is sculpted to provide additional room beneath the chassis. By moving critical areas of the tank inward, designers maintain ground clearance and avoid the need to alter crossmembers. This clearance supports aftermarket mandrel bent headers and prevents rubbing at jounce travel and under cornering load. Enthusiasts gain freedom to select aggressive manifolds and larger sidewalls without modifications to the floor pan or crossmember.
Integrated Fuel Pump System
Integrated Fuel Pump System incorporates a 255 LPH Walbro in tank module engineered to maintain steady delivery under all driving conditions. With capacity for engines up to 550 horsepower, the pump sustains optimal supply during hard acceleration or track use. The unit installs below the liquid level to reduce aeration and extend service intervals. Its brushless motor delivers quiet operation while the enclosed filter sock guards against debris. Test ports are provided for quick system pressure verification.
Chassis Compatibility
Chassis Compatibility is locked to the 1968-1970 El Camino EFI conversion and ties seamlessly into MuscleRods mounts for precise engine placement. That partnership ensures correct driveline angles and preserves alignment between transmission and differential. Using factory style bracketry paired with dedicated rails keeps the tank perfectly registered to original mounting points. This precision placement minimizes vibration and reduces universal joint wear while preserving grounding points for noise free operation.
Construction and Installation
Construction and Installation features robust materials that resist corrosion and flex under high vibration. Each unit features seam welded corners tested to industry pressure standards and internal foam pads that damp slosh during acceleration or braking. The package includes all seals, hoses and fasteners along with step by step instructions. Assembling the kit requires basic tools and offers a straightforward path for enthusiasts working in a home garage. Every component from the fill neck to the return line adapter is crafted for perfect mating with stock hardware, ensuring lasting reliability.
