Street and Performance has done a few of these truck this way and they indicated they are not having a problem with them. Your '85 tank won't have the baffles in them, only '87 up.

When my gas gauge with stock carbureted sender shows empty it only takes me 14 gallons to fill my 16 gallon tank. That may have something to do with S&P not having problems. S&P does recommend the baffled tanks on their website though. I guess I will find out for myself. I still need to get a sending unit. Maybe I will try to get the tank with it.
