Re: 1971 C20 "LS Swap"

A little update on the old girl. We ran into a fuel issue with the duel tanks starving the inline fuel pump. So I'm in process of re doing the fuel system on it, the passenger side tank will have a intake pump and will be the primary tank. The driver side tank will have a booster pump that will pump into the passenger side tank.

Before we had a issue with it, drove it about 55 miles down to a cars and coffee event. It only used about 2 gallons of gas which averaged about 27ish mpg. That was a cruise speed on average of 55 mph. To figure we filled the tank before we left and when we left the event stopped and topped that tank off just to find out how much gas we used. Can't express how happy we are with the power the truck makes and the fuel mileage it has. Can't wait to get the fuel system re configured and drive it again!
