Default First Gen F-body Fuel Tank Vent

Hello all,

Initially I posted in the 67-69 Firebird section thinking my question was a bit more vechicle specific but I haven't had any responses yet. Apologies for the double postings.

I have a 68 firebird. Purchased a Rick's tank for EFI and have installed a Sniper Xflow efi system. I was hoping that the vented gas cap would be sufficient to vent the tank but it's only a one-way vent as far as I can tell.

I have an extra port on the top of the tank for a vent line. Everything I've read is that the vent line should be at least as high or higher than the fill port. I've read in some other forums where guys are running vents up high inside the trunk but I'm not convinced this is a good idea.

I'm open to suggestions and if you're using a vent with a check ball or baffle of some kind I would really like to know what you're using.

Thanks very much for taking the time to read through this.
