Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserve body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming

Since going junk yard hunting for chrome bumpers and no window doors and rubber mat I would get larger tank too? | | | Re: ,gas tank sizes | Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 663 addict | addict Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 663 | well i know my G20/G2500 long wheelbases came with 33 gallon I don't think it would be an issue on a short wheelbase. do you which size you have now? | | | Re: ,gas tank sizes | Joined: Mar 2013 Posts: 42 newbie | OP newbie Joined: Mar 2013 Posts: 42 | No idea but my guess is smallest. And i guess mine would have pump in it so tank needs to come from injected 90-95? | | | Re: ,gas tank sizes | Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 663 addict | addict Joined: Jun 2006 Posts: 663 | I do not know much about shortys.The fuel pump is no big deal my 93 has it.Remember JY prob have your parts before they would stock 1970s-1980s.Based on supply and demand.Sounds like you need to find out more about your van before you go replacing parts,my suggestion would be a factory service manual ebay usually has them at a reasonable cost.The fuel straps are the real question mark about fuel tank exchanges,I believe. link click it to go to an active listing I bought one for my 93 and it blows the chilton /haynes AWAY for info | | | Re: ,gas tank sizes | Joined: Mar 2013 Posts: 42 newbie | OP newbie Joined: Mar 2013 Posts: 42 | Thanks I do need to find out more about the van I bought. For now just building in my head. Fun | | | Re: ,gas tank sizes | Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 738 old hand | old hand Joined: Jan 2003 Posts: 738 | I'm almost positive the 3rd gen Chevys came standard with a 22 gal tank with a 33 gal option. They both will fit in the same location although you'll need the longer straps for the 33 and you'll have to relocate the crossmember that the straps connect to a few inches forward. Nothing a 4 1/2" grinder with a cutting wheel and a welder won't fix! You say you have a '96 G-10...I thought '96 was the year that the newer style body came out?
