Re: LS1 fuel tank in an LT1 car
If it is just the fuel return that is the problem, that is simple. Cut a 1" piece of pipe about 1/4" id and weld it to the pump assembly after a hole is drilled. Are the dimensions where the tank straps go the same?

Re: LS1 fuel tank in an LT1 car
so are there any downsides to the swap? you need the tank, the filler neck, and i guess the different fuel pump? and fab some connection points.
sounds so tempting...until i look at the bills sitting on my floor
