Fuel Tank Capacity??

Post by reliabilty »

Anybody know what size fuel tank my 68 bump has? It's a custom cab with two tanks. I was wondering what the capacity was on the one behind the seat and the main tank was? Also what kind of fuel milage should I expect? It has the 390/2barl. carb with a C6 transmision. Every thing is stock except the exhaust. Just had duals put on it. Thanks!! :)

Thanks!! Gas milage seems to be a bit better when I keep my foot out of it. hehehehe Gas gauge dosen't work, thats why I was wondering about the capacity. Once I get my guesstimated mpg I'll go with that until I can get my gauge fixed. Thanks again!

The tank behind the seat is your main tank.
