Super Brian Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 My gas tank needs took be replaced. Can anyone recommend an accurate replacement, but not to pricey? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam (Bones) Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 the problem with aftermarket replacement tanks is the filler neck they stop at the tank, factory ones continue into the tank to prevent fuel slosh up the filler neck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black07ss Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 the problem with aftermarket replacement tanks is the filler neck they stop at the tank, factory ones continue into the tank to prevent fuel slosh up the filler neck  Is it easy enough to remove the old and have someone solder in the old neck?

Murphy Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Check the Dyncorn website, I believe Leo is a distributor. I got mine from a local bodyshop that was a distributor and it was an exact replacement with the neck. As I recall, I paid $100........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared Richey Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Heck I get fuel slosh even with an original, you literally have to listen closely or you'll make a huge mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toppless72 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Jared, Â Stomping it to the floor too much will have that effect also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chevyss Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I got a tank from Leo Konik and he had it shipped direct to my home. The price was very good and it was a good quality tank. Might check with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gprimm Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 When I replaced the tank on my small block, I went to my friend and neighbor, Mark Tamraz of Tamraz Auto in Plainfield, IL. He sold me an exact tank with the correct filler neck that was made in Canada. He said this outfit did the original ones. Still pretty 7 years later!!!!
