Just fired up my first LS Conversion yesterday! We used the Vaporworks/Rick's Hot Rod gas tank.. & it worked flawless.. Thanks Carl for coming over & helping me set up the gas tank for the Nova we got going on here @ the shop.. All our LS conversion are now being used with this fuel system.. It is such an easy setup!

Cris,
That stocker looks awesome! It has '10 guts?? Is it plug-n-play? I am looking for a tank for my '68 vert and that looks like it fits the bill.

Thats a sweet looking set up.
Are you using a return line and what did you put on top of the vent hose?

Some more support for the Rick's / VaporWorx combo... As most of you know we ran one of the first production versions in the OLoA this year and on our longest night last week we ran the car down to less than a gallon remaining three times in a row. On our last fill up the car took 17.66 gallons... In an 18 gallon tank. No stumbling, missing, or hesitation... This combo might e the ultimate solution for our cars.
I'll be running one of the stocker setups in my wife's 67.

My tank hasn't arrived yet form Rick's but it is a full Vaporworx set-up with the CTS-V fuel pump module and will be feeding a Turboed 6.0L LS in a '69 442.
VERY EXCITED to get this thing! :willy: :willy: :willy: :willy:

The stock tank we was done with a Vaporwork's tray that uses the 2010 Camaro fuel module, OER stainless gas tank, & a few bugs we machined..

No return line required.. used a ball check valve on the tank & ran the hose up.. need to order a filter for the end of it..

I've been crazy busy at work, plus the VaporWorx tasks, family, etc. and I missed this one.
Thanks Cris. I'm glad it worked with no problems. I owe you a phone call.
