I agree with Rick. It's a great install using OEM parts. My wife's going to hate you.

Where in the trunk did you have to locate the access panel?

It isn't mini-tubed. It it were there would be no way to fit this tank in since it is so wide. I just squeezed to the very last micro mm these C5 rear rims under these fenders.

Chris,

I got my tank, fuel lines and tank straps waiting on me to pick up at the salvage yard. $75 for everything. Is the access panel from a caprice, or did you make this piece? Thanks for all the help!

Andrew

The access panel is from the caprice trunk floor.

That is a sweet install. You Da Man! By the way how do you like the Fiberglass monoleaf springs. I've been real tempted, any imput?
