03 escalade/tahoe fuel tank swap i to 74 c10

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone knows if the fuel tank from my donor 03 escalade would fit in my 74 c10 lwb and if so does anyone make kits for it.

I have not heard of it being used, but it would be like swapping in a blazer/suburban tank. I would imagine there is space for it, but you would need to set up a new fuel door in the bed side. I do not know of any kits per say that would get the mounting figured out, but you would still need body mods for the furl filler.

The better way is to buy a new appropriate year blazer or suburban tank and install the appropriate mid 2000s fuel module into it. That's what I have on my blazer. I never worry about fuel. There are kits for that.

87-90 (91?) would be best because they had EFI engines, so they should have intank furel pumps. Blazers were 25Gal....I believe Suburbans of the same year could be 30 & 40 Gal, but I am not positiv e on that. You will still need to modifiy your bed for the fuel filler.
