getting started back on the 69

[Larry S]

Well either somethings goin on with my cmptr or this site. I cant get the pics to load. I'll try later. Heres an idea, someone tell me why this wouldnt work... The Blazer tank I have, came with a stock 90 ohm sender, set up for a mechanical fuel pump. Im thinking I could use this sender for a sender only and plug off the fuel pick up line where it comes out of the tank. Then cut another hole in the tank and weld the lock ring from the 96 silverado and install the 96 fuel pump/ sender into the tank. Id just be using it as a fuel pump(no sender). The 96 pump is the correct height for this tank. I have the wiring harness for the pump from the donor. I know it sounds crazy, but I know this pump is the correct pressure for the vortec, and I know the 90 ohm sender is correct for the 69 gauge. I have all of this stuff and wouldnt have to spend any $, and I really dont want to go with an external pump. I would just need to set my bed back on and be sure the lines coming out of the top of the 96 pump wont have any clearance issues. What do you guys think?
