yes they should swap right out are they the same size? also the sending unit are interchangeable if you need 3 but the burb has 4 outlets they will swap right out. also try to make sure they are about the same year and both use the same fuel

There are 3 tanks availible for the Burbs, 28, 31 and 40.
The 40 gallon version WILL NOT fit a K5.

I would say you have a rare one, and depending on its condition, it would be more valuable than a comparable Blazer assuming it has all the parts.

well it has been frankenstiened a little new doors and fenders then im getting a new rear passenger side quarter panel on it from   unless anybody knows of one cheaper its like 500 bucks...and of course i gotta replace the normal rusts spots i e the rear floor by the tailgate other than that its rust free still has the original coating from the factory on the frame.... its got a pretty straight body other than the panel and the rocker arms aint even rusted out a little surface rust but hey an hour of sanding priming and painting will cure that.... man they guy i bought it from got ripped cuz i traded a 98 blazer lt for it i think i got the better end of the deal....
