I got lost here somewhere between suburbans and monte carlos, BUT I have
installed a '78 Regal tank in an '82 Gran Prix (both "G" bodies) and
would dare say that an '86-88 GN/T-typ (good luck) or a 4.3l Monte Carlo
tank should bolt in the '78 Monte Carlo.  Trust me, get a baffled tank
like these.  I put an analog projection on a '79 Malibu w/ the original
tank and it can't be driven hard (accel or cornering) w/ less than a 1/3
to 1/4 tank of gas.
