    Chevy gas tank...

    Looking for a 15 gallon suburban/blazer gas tank. The one I got is nasty inside and I don't want to deal with it. I'll just reuse my 30ish gallon tank if no one has one laying around.

    I have a 40 gallon tank out of a C/K series cab and chassis, and a burban with an unknown size tank. It might be a 33 but is more likely a 40. I also have some pickup saddle tanks, they are around 15 each.

    The point of this is to downsize the tank in order to gain ground clearance. i wouldn't be doing this anyways unless I had to drop the tank due to rotting fuel lines. The tank I have now is dented, but I have no reason for a new one unless it's smaller.

    Also, you still owe me $35

    anyone know anything about this one? http://www.galleria-e.com/cgi-bin/Co...Product/462301

    The dimensions they give don't really match the # of gallons listed, unless thats internal dimensions

    Ok... dropped the tank today. Would have reinstalled it but the damn baffle is broken due to the tank being crushed.

    I'm looking for another tank. Hopefully something smaller and something that uses a similar sending unit. Anyone know how large of tanks came in S10's or astro/safari vans? I'm assuming they'd have similar sending units.

    Anyone know any junkyards around that sell gas tanks? I'm going to call around tommorow, but just thought I'd ask.

    Yours should be fine... With the dents it has it probably only carries about 20 gallons now. Self-clearancing, right?

    John I maybe coming over again tommorow and taking a closer look. Any idea what kinda fuel pumps they use? Are they the same shape as the TBI?
