for those using aftermarket inline fuel pumps July 11, 2007, 10:48:56 PM i ditched the fuel cell, and im going to use the stock tank again, and probably an aeromotive a1000 pump. can the stang aftermarket pickup tube be modified to work in an 88 tank, or is sumping the stock tank my only other solution?

for those using aftermarket inline fuel pumps Reply #1 – July 12, 2007, 02:54:06 AM That is a very nice looking unit there but I don't know if it works in a t-bird.I will tell you that I made one almost like this but there is a problems. When you have less than a 1/2 tank of gas the fuel all goes to the rear and leaves the pick-up.So if you can sump the stock tank you will be money ahead because if you have enough power you will have to do it anyway.If you do the sump please post (if you don't blow yourself up) the results, costs etc. Also post all the parts you needed to do this and get fuel to the front.I'm going to have to do this and would like to learn. I'm at a complete lost how you do a good quality fuel system that will hold up to track use and not spend a mint to do so. Maybe you can't.TED Quote Selected

for those using aftermarket inline fuel pumps Reply #6 – September 28, 2007, 01:47:55 AM what do you mean by "side access"? mine comes out from the top of the tank. does a carb'd bird tank fit in an '88? Quote Selected
for those using aftermarket inline fuel pumps Reply #7 – September 28, 2007, 01:59:39 AM side access as in like a dodge daytona mid / early 80's ect where the FP is on the side so you dont have to drop the tank for fp removal.There are a few tanks down in my JY and a couple are marked Linc / Ltd / galaxy ect.I was asking you if you knew how the carb'd vehicles were setup cause what i saw, the pickup was on top for those i glanced at.I really would not know if the tanks fit or not but it is a curious question. personally, i would rather fit in the hardware than tank swap. whole tank introduces more room for extended modificaitons.
