      Missed this question from a few months ago.

      Unfortunately the wagon fuel tank is really unique - its a "suitcase" sized tank mounted right behind the left rear tire. I haven't found a manufacturer that build an EFI tank for the wagon. I think my only options are an external pump, or mounting an aftermarket fuel pump assembly into the existing tank, such as Aeromotive's Stealth systems.

      I had a wagon as well and I used a universal in tank pump from pumps inc.....there also was another guy who modified his original wagon tank to accept the the same pump, I lost my pics of how I did it, I will search my threads and try and find the other guys setup.

      Steve Rupp built a 71 wagon Maybe you could shoot him a PM and ask what he used. He has some good connections and might know something we don't for your fuel system.

      Love the stance and ride height. What's the suspension setup? Putting a 5.3 in a 72 Chevelle wagon now and trying to plan my suspension. I was able to modify my factory sending unit to install an in tank pump.

      Love the wagon...If you haven't solved the fuel tank issue, you might want to consider a surge tank... Radium Auto makes some real cool stuff. Im using one of their fuel cell surge tanks one http://www.radiumauto.com/Universal-...Tanks-C54.aspx

      Surge tank looks like an option, as is an external pump. But think my first choice will be an attempt to modify the existing tank with a new internal high pressure pump.

      I'll let you know how it goes.

      Very nice!
