Fuel cell install time (long)

I am getting the parts together that I will need to do my fuel cell install in my 68 SWB Fleet. I already have a fuel cell that was ordered from fuelcellguy. Need to know if I am leaving anything out. So if anyone has done one of these notices I am missing something then please chime in

Going to call inline tube and order a custom line that will run down the frame rail up to the carb. Going to have a filter in the middle somewhere. Gooing to ask inline tube to put the correct fittings on the line so that I can mate up both sections of the line to the fuel filter. Need to get some frame clips to keep it all in place. Anyone know where I can get frame clips?

Bed will be coming off when this is done for ease of installation. Once the bed is off it will be sand disk time to get the surface rust off of the frame and then paint it. Tank install is pretty straight forward. I have the mounting hardware that fuelcellguy sent out. I will get some rubber to put between the brackets and the frame so it wont squeak.

I was planning on using a sidemarker fill but the rubber pieces on the hoses here in California are already a tight fit and I was reading that the next generation pumps will have even thicker ones installed so I will be grafting in a fuel door next to the side marker that came off of a 90 silverado. After its grafted in whats the best way to smooth out the welds?

I think that is it. Sorry for it being so long and kinda drug out but I dont want to miss anything on this.

Thanks
The other Brad
