1968 Impala EFI Fuel Tank Kit with 255 LPH Pump
When converting a 1968 Impala to LS power, ensuring uninterrupted fuel flow under high demand is essential and this fuel tank kit with integrated 255 LPH Walbro pump delivers a consistent feed throughout every driving condition. The design hugs the factory B body frame rails to preserve ride height and eliminate clearance concerns while resisting corrosion and impact damage. Inside the tank, the pump remains submerged to prevent vapor lock and support engines up to 550 horsepower without pressure loss. Complete with a calibrated sender, vent filter and mounting hardware every component required for installation ships in one package.
Seamless Integration with 1968 Impala B Body Undercarriage
The fuel tank is precisely shaped to follow the exact contours of the 1968 Impala B body frame rails and factory mounting bosses, so no cutting or reshaping of the chassis is needed. This design reuses the original sender opening and strap holes, preserving the Impala's intended ground clearance and factory ride height. Installers can bolt the unit into place without custom brackets or measurement errors, dramatically cutting install time. Precise alignment of the tank also minimizes stress on suspension mounts and maintains proper chassis geometry during spirited driving. By delivering a true plug and play experience, it ensures the LS engine conversion integrates without compromise to the car's classic undercarriage layout.
Submerged Pump Design for Consistent Fuel Delivery
Positioning the 255 LPH Walbro pump fully inside the tank ensures it remains submerged under all driving conditions, preventing vapor lock even during hard acceleration or steep inclines. Continuous fuel coverage helps cool the pump module and lubricate its internal components, promoting long pump life and reliable operation up to 550 horsepower. This in tank arrangement yields a smooth pressure curve with minimal fluctuation, which translates into sharper throttle response and stable engine performance at various rev bands. By isolating the pump from engine compartment heat, it also reduces the risk of fuel temperature rise and pressure drop under sustained load. The end result is a dependable feed that keeps pace with demanding LS applications on road and track.
Heavy Gauge Steel Construction Guarding Against Corrosion and Impact
Crafted from premium heavy gauge steel, the tank offers exceptional resistance to dents from road debris and pothole impacts, ensuring its shape remains intact over years of use. The thick steel walls form a robust barrier against corrosion from moisture and road salts, making it well suited for varied climates. Its raw steel surface provides a blank canvas for clear coat or custom paint matched to restoration schemes. The rigid shell also serves as a stable anchor point, preventing fuel slosh and vibration under heavy acceleration or sudden braking. Together these attributes translate into a durable assembly that protects internal components and sustains reliable operation in harsh conditions.
Inclusive Hardware Kit Streamlining the Installation Process
Every kit arrives complete with the 255 LPH pump module, calibrated sending unit, filler neck, vent filter, gaskets, tank straps and all required mounting hardware. Each piece is engineered to match the tank's geometry and the Impala's factory chassis, guaranteeing leak free connections and correct component positioning. Clear labeling and a concise parts list simplify the process, helping home mechanics and professional installers move through assembly without guesswork. This single source approach removes trips to parts stores and eliminates compatibility concerns, reducing overall project time. By consolidating all necessary elements, it enables a smooth and efficient upgrade experience from start to finish.
