Post Which Fuel Tank Is Best

I have the opportunity to use either a '75 (screw-on gas cap, equal sized fuel lines) or a '74 fuel tank (different sized fuel lines, 'bayonet' gas cap).

Is one better thatn the other? They're both in great shape.

What is the rest of your fuel system like? If you've got the early-style fuel pump and lines, use the early-style tank. If you've got the late-style fuel pump and lines, use the late-style tank. It makes things easier when you don't have to do lots of swapping and/or diameter-change adaptations.

Ah. I'm changing to a CIS fuel pump/system for my 2.7 transplant. The center fuel lines are currently the '74 sizes. I'm thinking of replacing them because I want to move the fuel pump to the front and I think the CIS system runs under a bit more pressure than the old AFC did with the fuel pump under the battery(?)
