OK guys I started a thread in the hints and tricks. Read it and let me know what I missed. I have the body off right now so now's the time for pics. Keep in mind though that I haven't finished the filler or fuel door.

Jason, I just measured up my factory injection fuel pump.
Its a 96 truck pump Ford #F6TU-9A407-CB. I picked it up cheap on E-bay years ago for my truck,but stuck with the in-cab tank for now. Here's the specs.

9" depth needed
3 3/4" hole in top of tank

would probably have to make a gasket and screw it to top of tank since Ford used that locking ring to hold it in

Does this sound like it would work with that tank?

I can take pics if needed.

Tim,
Hope these help. It looks like you might be good on width but the tank's not deep enough. The company I got this from makes a universal in tank injection setup. That may be an option for you. Good luck. Let me know if I can help further.
