EFI Fuel Tank Kit for 1971-1972 Chevy El Camino LS/LT Swaps
Installing an LS or LT engine in a 1971 through 1972 Chevy El Camino often exposes the stock tank's limits in both fuel flow and frame clearance. This EFI fuel tank kit pairs a 400 LPH Walbro pump with a precision notch to clear exhaust piping and rear wheels on the GM A Body chassis. Once in place, the integrated pump module and sending unit hook up directly to GM style harnesses and fuel rails, letting you move on to wiring and tuning without fitment headaches.
Support for 550+ HP with 400 LPH Walbro Pump
The 400 LPH Walbro unit is engineered to deliver a steady fuel supply under intense demand, making it ideal for supercharged or turbocharged setups. By maintaining a consistent flow rate during full throttle and rapid acceleration, it virtually eliminates the risk of fuel starvation in engines exceeding 550 horsepower. Its internal motor resists heat soak and voltage drop, preserving output even in prolonged high load conditions. Technicians will value the pump's durability and its ready capacity for future power upgrades.
Precision Notched Shape for Exhaust and Wheel Clearance
This tank features a carefully cut notch that creates necessary room for both exhaust piping and rear tires on the A Body chassis. The sculpted contour removes common fitment conflicts without requiring any frame or suspension modification. Installers can slide the tank into place and secure it with existing straps, avoiding time-consuming sheet metal trimming or pipe rerouting. The result preserves the El Camino's factory ride height and original handling characteristics.
Integrated Tank Module for Simplified Assembly
The combined pump and sending unit arrive as a single assembly that plugs directly into GM style wiring and fuel rails. This direct fit approach removes the need for custom adapters or multiple harness splices, cutting installation time significantly. It lines up with stock filler neck provisions and strap mounts, so there is no guesswork on positioning. Even first-time swappers can complete the fuel system plumbing and wiring with confidence and minimal troubleshooting.
USA Made Components for Proven Durability
Every element of this kit is manufactured in the United States from materials tested for corrosion resistance, vibration tolerance, and temperature extremes. From the stainless steel tank straps to the precision machined filler neck and leak-proof gaskets, each part undergoes rigorous quality inspections before shipment. Included vent filters and mounting hardware are specified for long term service, ensuring maintenance intervals remain low. This domestic production pedigree offers peace of mind on both daily drivers and weekend machines.
