Also you might consider having your body man install the gas door out of a 88-98 pickup, it will look way cleaner.

Since you mentioned gas tank let me share what I did. I know the stock gas tank capacity isn't going to cut it with a 502.
I decided to try and install a Northwest Metal Products 37 gallon tank for a 69-72 Blazer. As you can probably guess from my screen name I've got a K5 Blazer too, and its also a 72. I figured since the truck and suburban frames are close to the same, the Blazer should be too, and I didn't see why a "Blazer" tank wouldn't fit. As it turns out it does fit. I'll confess its slightly off center between the frame rails, and I sorta ditched the directions provided and figured out how to mount it myself. I don't know if this was due to it going into a Suburban, or just manufacturing variances from Northwest Metal Products. Again I think it turned out allright.
