Post 243 ish in this thread has a pic..IIRC there was more that needed to be modified on the pass floor pan than the tank..after installing the BB shell (waiting for the shaft) I decided to sell it to a 60 owner
That was a split case though, correct? Definitely smaller than the 80 series case.

@nukegoat thought it was obvious, I'm stubborn.
But in all reality, I actually shouldn't be modding my fuel tank, at least not for the Tcase. Stock driveshafts even, end goal is to keep the tcase in the factory location and push this tiny little motor forward to offset the difference.

Yes correct it was a split case! Thank you that was misleading.
Time and date top of page, Note Availability
I spoke with them last week and they said they have them available. The capacity is doubled and the units have already pretapped/block ports for use with an external pump and res. And yes, you'll still need an external pump/res as the units have no way to self circulate fluid. They told me that they don't know of anyone with a stock powertrain application for an 80 using the BB-C. Their main customer is someone swapping out the powertrain for something modern.
I decided against the BB-C at this point as it's more work than I want to do to obtain low range as I'm in CA and CARB sucks for swaps. If I was anywhere else, I would have threw on a 2uz, 3uz or and LS already. Since I'm staying in CA for a little bit longer, I'm limited in options. So I'm holding out for Nwest Fab version of low range that adapts to the back of the case. Supposedly it's planned so it won't interfere with the gas tank. There's no ETA and they haven't started design yet either.
Waiting for NWest Fab new solution or even a better solution from someone. Maybe someone will create an Adapter to use a Orion case.
Maybe I bought the last one!
Obviously it exists, but they really want to talk to you before you just order it so you know what's involved. I will say, I've had to talk to Kris a couple times and he's been great to work with. Super quick responses, and gread guidance considering there are so few of these out there. Of the few people using them as an adapter, it sounded like none of them were used with an 80 series case. This will be a rare bird, unless it works out well for me and you guys start buying them.
