Fuel Tank Kit with 255 LPH Pump for 1955-1956 Chevy (Bel Air Nomad/150/210 Wagon/Sedan Delivery)
If you are swapping an LS motor into a 1955 or 1956 Bel Air Nomad or Station Wagon, ensuring consistent fuel flow under load is a key challenge that this fuel tank kit directly addresses. It integrates a 255 LPH pump inside the tank body to remove the need for external plumbing and reduce pressure drops over long hose runs. Installation remains straightforward thanks to direct-fit mounting on the original frame rails, which also preserves factory ground clearance and isolates the pump from engine compartment heat for cooler, reliable delivery. The pump capacity meets demands of LS engines up to 550 horsepower, helping to prevent lean conditions during both steady cruising and spirited acceleration.
In Tank Fuel Pump Integration Enhances Efficiency
Placing the 255 liter per hour pump inside the fuel tank removes the need for extra feed lines and minimizes pressure loss over long runs. Submerging the pump in fuel also insulates it from under hood heat, reducing vapor lock risk and ensuring dependable operation. By retaining the original underbody profile, this layout preserves factory ground clearance on 1955 and 1956 Bel Air Nomad and Station Wagon frames. The consistent flow delivered directly to the injectors results in crisp throttle response and stable fuel delivery under varied driving conditions.
High Power Delivery for LS Engine Swaps
The 255 liter per hour capacity is specifically matched to support LS engines producing up to 550 horsepower, preventing lean running at high rpm. This steady supply protects injectors and valves from fuel starvation and helps avoid detonation during hard acceleration. Whether cruising on open highways or launching off the line, drivers will experience smooth power delivery and reliable performance. Sustained fuel pressure under load also benefits towing or towing scenarios by maintaining engine stability.
Precision Fitment Preserves Original Clearance
This tank kit is designed to bolt directly to the factory frame rails of 1955 and 1956 Chevy Bel Air Nomad, 150, 210 Wagon, and Sedan Delivery models without any custom brackets. Maintaining the stock mounting points keeps the vehicle's ride height and ground clearance unchanged, avoiding interference with suspension and exhaust components. Professional shops and home builders alike will appreciate the time saved by a straightforward installation. The result is a clean underbody appearance that honors the classic chassis design.
Comprehensive Components Streamline Installation
The complete assembly includes the fuel tank, sending unit, filler neck, tank straps, vent filter, gaskets, and all necessary hardware for direct installation. A step-by-step guide walks through removal of the old tank and setup of the new in tank pump, using only common hand tools. This thorough documentation eliminates guesswork, reduces install time, and ensures each component is fitted correctly. Builders can focus on their LS swap rather than sourcing additional parts or fittings.
Engineered for a precise fit and reliable operation, this fuel tank kit helps ensure consistent performance throughout your LS swap.
