in todays market of custom parts why not make up a cardboard or thin wood tank as bai as you can fit under the cab and bed like a 73-87 style and have it made for you and have it setup to use a common late model efi sender for the fuel pump unit .

or maybe even see just how easy it might be to use a 73-87 style tank under there and just get one for a 1987 tbi spec truck and sender minus the pump and use the later acdelco ep381 pump . then if you dont like the gas doors on the box like you said graft in some from a newer vehicle and make them blend in nice . maybe 88-98 style for the round yet flush door for fuel .
