Thread: Gas tank fuel pick-up

Mike,
Yes, it makes sense. I have carb not injection. If the vintique is such a pain in the gas, why are they still used? Just complaining out loud. I understand about no baffling.

They're still used because (1) they originally popped a copy of the Ford tank and people bought it since it was available and (2) they're trying to cover the broad market. Tanks, Inc. and Rock Valley kinda have moved into the market with products that are a bit more friendly to street rodders with "special needs" like pumps in tank, stainless construction, baffles, etc. On a 32, the top side needs to look kinda original since it is out there for all to see but the underside and internals can be different.

Mike,
Money still talks and B.S. walks as we say in Texas. Well, thanks for the ideas. I will maybe get a new tank when I do the blow apart to paint this winter.
