EFI Fuel Tank Kit for 1969-1970 Impala with 255 LPH Pump
Converting a 1969 or 1970 Impala to EFI demands a fuel system that keeps pace with modern engine demands and this fuel tank kit addresses that by pairing a reliable 255 LPH Walbro pump with a sealed tank module. Installation uses factory mounting points to preserve trunk space and ground clearance while the reshaped profile adds capacity without altering strap locations. The heavy gauge galvanized steel construction is protected by a powder coat finish that stands up to ethanol blends and resists corrosion over years of use. Support for LS engine swaps is integrated so fabricators can bypass bracket modifications and welding for a true bolt in fit.
Precision Pump Integration for Reliable EFI Performance
The 255 LPH Walbro pump at the heart of this kit is engineered to deliver up to 550 horsepower fuel flow with unwavering consistency. By operating fully submerged in the sealed tank module, the pump benefits from continuous cooling that mitigates vapor lock risks even under sustained throttle. Its calibrated output maintains stable pressure from idle through wide open throttle, ensuring crisp response and eliminating hesitation during rapid throttle transitions. Integrating the sending unit within the same housing streamlines wiring and plumbing, reducing potential leak points and simplifying diagnostics. Support for LS engine conversions is built in, allowing installers to bolt in the assembly without time consuming bracket fabrication.
Tailored Tank Geometry for True Stock Fit
This fuel tank has been reshaped to nest neatly beneath the trunk floor, sitting three quarters of an inch deeper and five inches shorter than the original Impala unit. Precision laser measurements ensure the mounting flanges align exactly with factory strap locations, so there is no need for welding or aftermarket brackets. The optimized profile not only boosts usable capacity but also preserves ground clearance and maintains original ride height. Mounting surfaces are finely machined to minimize vibration noise, yielding a secure installation that remains silent under all driving conditions. Installers appreciate the straightforward bolt in replacement that matches the contours of 1969 and 1970 Chevrolet B body chassis.
Galvanized Steel Shell with Protective Powder Coat
A robust heavy gauge galvanized steel shell provides a durable barrier against rust and corrosion, making it ideal for use with ethanol blended fuels. The industrial grade powder coat finish bonds tightly to the metal surface, creating a resilient shield against abrasion, chemical attack and road debris. This dual treatment guards weld seams and cut edges from pitting and wear, substantially extending service life in harsh environments. In addition to corrosion resistance, the coating helps dampen sound transmission through the tank walls, contributing to a quieter cabin experience. Minimal maintenance and long term reliability are assured by this proven combination of materials and surface protection.
Complete EFI Fuel System Kit for Fast Assembly
This all inclusive package brings together every component needed for a seamless EFI conversion in 1969 and 1970 Impalas. From the in tank pump module with integrated sending unit to molded gaskets and the OE style filler neck, each part is engineered for perfect compatibility and leak free performance. Tank straps, vent filter and precision hardware ensure solid mounting and clean venting without custom fabrication. The design minimizes parts chasing and lets technicians focus on tuning rather than sourcing individual items. With everything delivered in one crate, installation time is reduced dramatically, whether in a home garage or a professional shop setting.
