New to the this place figured I would post so stuff to help keep me motivated, got a 72 new Yorker 2 door from my dad, pretty clean car. He repaired the quarters years ago and sat in primer now for 10 year. I recently got it running again. Jamming the car, was white painting it jet black. Got passenger side done working on the trunk and driver side. Also installed a Holley efi kit, with a fuel tank and pumps for a 70 b body, waiting on fittings for that so tore apart the front end to rebuild and powder coat.

When I get the rest of the fittings to hook up the fuel I will let you know , installing it is pretty easy. It's 3 wires and installing an 02 sensor and a coolent temp sensor, I made it a lot harder wanting to run in tank fuel pump but an external one would probably work fine. Other then that , need to figure out throttle cable and kick down. And figure out where to install the factory coolent temp sensor on a big block. Used the factory spot for the efi set up
 
I doubt it's the same on a 77 new Yorker but anyone running the earlier ones a fuel tank for a 70 b body. Is dam close and bolts up. And tank Inc makes a efi ready tank. I need to see if I need to modify the fuel neck but it's a great option for anyone wants fuel injection
 
I have the linkage , the holley stuff is set up for GM and the piece I bought for it may or may not work I just haven't cared about it yet. Running the fuel system has been kicking my ***. It might be best just to change to kick down cable and aftermarket throttle cable set up

I like the in tank pump better then a external, unless the tank is sumped like a drag car.
