Re: '71 with an LBZ duramax. Need advice on fuel tank.

It sounds like it can be done. -16 sounds rather large for sure. Why not just put a tank in the rear under the bed and eliminate all the fittings that will add up to a lot in a quick amount of time? Or, why not use a newer plastic tank and make a fill tube to go from your original hole in the cab, to the new tank's fill hole. It would require some serious fab, but might be a lot less head ache over time from having one tank fill another tank.
