As subject line says - does anyone make a fuel sending unit with vapor return provision for a '67 B-body?

I can find them for '68 and up B-bodies, but so far none to fit a '67.

Barring that, does anyone know of a similar unit that can be made to fit by bending, massaging, etc?

My last resort is attempting to swage a vapor return line into a sending unit, but I'd prefer to buy one if they're available.

Thanks in advance,

Jim

Or, you could run the vapor return to the fuel tank fill tube.

It would have that extra line running through the trunk to the fill tube small "breather" line.

The other way is to drill into your sender, or even the tank and have a "barb" bolted in and trough it. Trying to bend a sender to match tanks is not the way to go.

Thanks guys.

Call me paranoid, but I'm not crazy about the idea of running the vapor return line through the trunk. I have visions of the trunk filling up with fuel and ka-boom! I probably worry too much, but it's who I am!

If no one informs me of a sending unit I can buy, adding a tube to one is the next method I'll explore.
