So we received the Nuke Performance stuff from Sweden and it includes the 60L fuel tank, CFC unit to house fuel pumps, level sensor and everything that's needed within the tank. It allows for an additional third fuel pump if needed. We are planning for Walbro 525 (Hellcat used) fuel pump as the main pump.

Right now the final "big boss" under the car is to get the fuel tank nicely fitted so that it takes the least room out from the trunk and allows for the original under license plate refuelling. They are a little worried that there will not be enough height difference but they are thinking of some solutions. Here are some pics that I just recently took:

P.S.

The black hose that came with the Nuke Performance set will not fit so they need a custom solution for that.

Weird note - for some reason the original door panels feature a 'Cuda emblem and also there was a Cuda emblem in the back. However, the car was originally a 318 with BH code. Wonder if someone was upbadging it back in the day...

The fuel tank has been fitted but the support frame is being worked on to make it "smoother" and waste less space in the trunk. The engine radiator and Vintage Air system have been fitted.



Next after fuel tank install is fuel supply and return line installation.

Common practice.  Easy replacement part.  That would have to be the first pieces to rebadging. 

Nice project, I'll follow along. 
The crate motor sounds awesome over the 5.7.

You mention the car is a BH car, Does it retain it's fender tag, Broadcast sheet or window sticker?

Solid progress it looks like now.
