LS Swapping your Blazer? Here's how I did an OEM level fuel tank

[DM72C20]

Old thread but this idea seems very smart. Working on an LS swap into my 72 C20.

You say: "So a universal sender will be needed. Also you can either use a Vaporworx PWM fuel controller (recommended) or a C5 corvette FPR. Either will work."

I've got the entire fuel system that I can use from my 09 Silverado donor truck - aside from the universal sender, would I require the other things? Any Vaporworx controller is at least $400 which is way more than I want to spend on a fuel system.

What universal sender would I want to look at? I think it is just a simple sender that you can drill a hole in the tank and install. I take it the 0-90ohm would work for a 72 stock fuel gauge?

Phillip hooked me on to this idea and helped me put together my setup. It's money.

I'm actually using a C5 FPR on my blazer at first, and then I realized the GM module I was using had an internal regulator so I've since removed that. As for the universal sender, yes I just used a VDO universal 0-90 sender and drilled a hole in the top of the tank.
