With the blazer and or burb tank what are you going to do with the filler neck? This is on my list of to do's

I popped it up through the bed using the k10 filler neck and some hose behind the wheel well in that dead space area. I planned on fabbing a sheet metal box with a marine style screw top filler but never got around to it.
 
Yes. So it has a longer tail section than a pickup. A larger (longer) tank can fit behind the axle of a Suburban than can fit behind a pickup axle. Right?

Think other way around longer space in a Pick up then a burb. Pick up has a spare back there which is as big as a tank or so.
 
I have a burb tank out and on the ground. Definitely a no go on a shortbox. Longbox shouldn't be an issue.
 
Man, all this talk about fuel injection and dual tanks and tbi and all this "gasoline" stuff sure makes me like having my 145 hp 6.2L diesel with a single 31 gal tank. HaHaHa...won't win any races but I'll get there eventually.
 
@campfire found this as another reason/explanation for the sump style add-on to the FiTech system. This explanation comes from Edelbrock because they make one also:

Eric Blakely of Edelbrock says, “Edelbrock does not offer a returnless fuel system because our core EFI customer-conversions to EFI are for pre-1974 vehicles with old school, non-baffled fuel tanks. Any EFI system — and particularly self-learning types, require a constant and steady fuel supply. When the fuel level in these older vehicles is less than 1/4 tank, they experience fuel slosh, which uncovers the fuel pickup and causes an unstable, severely-aerated fuel supply to the fuel pump.”​

Why would that prevent them from offering a returnless system? Isn't that what the Fitech addon does? Or am I missing something?
 
Is there a difference in K frames and C frames behind the axle?
