I would be very interested in an intank pump from them. But - I don't see anything about it on their site. Do they have one? Part #? All I see on their site are inline pumps..

An aftermarket 'generic' intank fuel pump for 'all applications'(you make it fit) would be great, but I haven't found one yet. So - I guess I'm just going to have to modify a stocker..

Help

What crossmember are those of you with the 4l60e using? Also, I understand that the crossmember is the same for 62-67?

I'm just having a little trouble with an xmember order.

Thanks

for info you have come to the right place! Another great site is ls1tech.com they have a ton of great info on the engine itselfas well as some nova guys doing the same installs. You should also check out street and performance's website at hotrodlane.cc . What year is your car? If you have a first gen, do you plan on getting a front clip? I know that chassis works and street and performance both make mounts and adapters for the lsx engines.
welcome to the site!!!!

That's a truck oil pan. The F-body oil pan isn't as deep.

LOL - forgot how loud those pumps were.. In my Fox Mustang/conversion it would get higher pitched when I hit the brakes and the fuel surged to the front of the tank. And there was foam in the tank too. Just very annoying.

Nice car/setup!!! A buddy of mine was building something very similar until Wheel2wheels green sleeper came out in Hot Rod - which looks nearly identical to his. He lost interest and the car is just sitting now...

I see alot of people do the dual walbros in the f-bodys well over 1000hp.
Ive been thinking going that route. It is very annoying, like an ultra-light flying low behind you. Ive had it for 4 years and its very reliable though.
