1970-1973 F-Body Camaro/Firebird LS Fuel Tank Kit with 255 LPH Pump
If you are tackling a LS engine conversion in a first generation F Body, maintaining stable fuel pressure through hard cornering and launches is critical and this 1970 through 1973 Camaro and Firebird EFI Fuel Tank Kit with its 255 LPH pump delivers just that. Designed to slip into the original tank opening, it preserves chassis geometry and avoids any need to cut or trim the floor pan. Its integrated swirl pot holds a small reserve of fuel around the pickup, preventing cavitation under heavy lateral loads and ensuring consistent flow for up to 550 horsepower. With stainless steel straps and precision molded O ring seals resisting corrosion and leaks, installers gain reliable, direct fitment for a smooth LS swap fuel solution.
Preserving Factory Tank Geometry for Direct Fitment
This fuel tank kit replicates the exact shape and mounting points of the 1970 to 1973 Camaro and Firebird F Body shell, allowing it to drop into the original opening without any chassis cutting or panel trimming. By maintaining stock ride height and ground clearance, suspension dynamics stay true to original settings and brake and exhaust paths remain clear. The precision molded housing locks onto existing studs, eliminating any movement under hard cornering and ensuring the pump assembly remains stable. This direct fit approach saves installation time and keeps body alignment intact.
Swirl Pot and 255 LPH Pump Partnership for Reliable Fuel Flow
The integrated swirl pot design creates a small reserve of gasoline around the pickup to prevent cavitation when cornering or during hard launches. Paired with a high capacity 255 LPH Walbro pump, this setup supports fuel delivery for engines up to 550 horsepower by maintaining steady pressure at the injector rails. This combination minimizes fuel slosh and avoids air pockets even when fuel levels drop low, resulting in consistent throttle response and smooth shifts. Drivers will notice improved stability in fuel flow under sustained aggressive driving.
Stainless Components and O Ring Seals for Lasting Durability
Heavy gauge stainless steel straps secure the tank firmly to the chassis while resisting corrosion from road salt and moisture, reducing the need for frequent hardware replacement. Corrosion resistant mounting hardware and locking washers hold torque under constant vibration, preventing strap loosening over time. Precision molded O ring seals at the pump module and filler neck create a leak proof barrier that withstands repeated thermal cycles without degrading. This combination of materials and seals protects the pump and sending unit from debris intrusion, ensuring reliable performance.
Complete Fuel System Kit Streamlining LS Engine Installation
This all inclusive kit delivers every component needed for a smooth LS engine swap fuel system, eliminating the risk of missing parts or multiple orders. The fuel pump arrives preinstalled inside the in tank module to remove alignment guesswork and speed assembly. Included are a sending unit that connects to factory gauges for accurate readings, a vent filter, filler neck, gaskets, straps and all mounting hardware to simplify setup. Detailed instructions guide installers through hose routing and torque settings, trimming labor time and helping builders focus on engine calibration and tuning tasks.
