If you need another volunteer, I'm it! 79 TA. I asked you about getting one of these about 2 months ago :-)

I think this sending unit is fine, just like it is. My car/tank has this extra tube for AC. Without this tube it is a breeze - the car HAS a deep indentation between the mounting rails for the tank. I think Rob set up the unit to have the two fittings come out exactly halfway between these two. An AC car has this extra tubing that gets in the way - but is still no big deal.

The sending unit fit fine in the stock tank (the only minimal thing is that the negative ground is about 1" too short (LOL) - no big deal obviously).

Here are pics - ask questions - I think this unit is ready.....

The pic from the top - the sending unit needs to be as close to halfway between the rails as possible (I adjusted this - the AC tube hinders this a little).

Also - it is a little cramped once the tank is in - it is better to get your an-lines on there before you mount the tank.

I have a cheap brass fitting on the return I will just use a rubber line for this.

My plumbing is still evolving.

The other thing to cover here is thanking PY for letting us put this stuff on their forum.
