Fuel Tank Replacement

one secret i've heard is that you can use a gas tank out of a 69-73 mustang, which upgrades your tank size to 20 gallons. Make sure you check the years, im not 100% on that. (the year of tank you can use) I believe i read it in a mustang and fords article, might want to check out their website plus others responses before going through with it ovbiously. I've never taken a gas tank out of a mustang, but it doesnt seem like it should be that difficult for ya. Good luck.

I'm going to try to keep this project as simple as possible. I don't really drive enough to require a larger tank so I think that I'll stick with the 16 gallon tank. They don't seem to be very expensive but I have been told to get a Ford sending unit because the ones that come with the kits don't last. The Ford sending units cost quite a bit more but it is probably worth it. Any thoughts? E.
