Default Gas Tank

Ok So I have taken a break from the vert and now its time to start working on her again. I have a holley Pro-Jection set up sitting on the bench for the past 2 yrs. I have not installed it due to the fuel tank having an opening off the bottom. So my question is canI get a gas tank from a 73 and put it in my girl and have the filler neck still line up with the fuel door or an I better off with a nother soultion. All sugestions are welcomed.
Thanks

I have a 73 tank (bottom feed) in my 77, filler fits perfect and I really like the BIG filler opening. I come out of the tank to a filter and then to a Walbro pump then to the hard steel line up front.

You can get the tank from Tamaraz in Plainfield, pick it up and avoid the shipping.

Hope that helps,

Frank
