i just bought my 68 camaro PT set up this way. it is a messy painful experience filling up, and i have to fill up often because of the narrowed gas tank to accommodate the minitubs.

hmmm. i'm wondering if the gas tank is not installed correctly to release pressure when filing up, or if this is what i should expect by design.

thx,

Firstly congratulations on purchasing Chris's camaro, it is an awesome car with lots of high dollar parts secondly thanks for the compilment Randy.

I have not dirven the car yet as it is still in the shop. I would not think that the gas cap has anything to do with gas burping back up, I believe it is due to the Ricks fuel tank that you have as it is an old set from Ricks. Their new set up called Ricks tank with vaporworks technology.

You will find lots of info in this forum on the tank and burping back issue.
