A-body tank for LS swap

[kainedogg]

Until I can afford a good fuel tank, I was going to use my original '68 Lemans tank with an external Bosch 044 pump. I am using 3/8" high pressure hose with -6 fittings to the regulator. Question is, what parts do I need to connect the hose to the tank itself for supply and return?

I would use a AN#6 flare nut & sleeve on the 3/8 feed line.Flare the 3/8 feed line coming out of the tank to 37 degree's.If your tank sending unit has a return line flare it also as the feed line.You will need a C-6 corvette filter/regulator to ajust fuel pressure.

Thanks for the input bro. Do you have a pic of the flare nut and sleeve? Tank sending unit has no return line, I believe of all the BOP's, only Oldesmobile had a return line. I do not plan to use a C5/6 regulator since I have a boost referenced Weldon regulator. What flare tool are you using to achieve the right size for an -6 fitting?
