From the fill cap counter clockwise you have
-Fill cap or ribbed 90 degree fill
- 1/2" NPT for your vent (safety vent included)
- 3/8" NPT return both EFI and Non EFI
- on the efi unit you have a 3/8 NPT for your fuel out
- Sending unit flange with sender installed
- 3/8 NPT on bottom front pass side for drain if you have an EFI Tank and IF your tank is non EFI then that fitting is your Fuel out to engine.
Dave,
I'll see how much clearance I have and possibly mount it inside the frame.
Are there any tricks to the electrical connections on the pump and sending unit or is that self explanitory? Thanks for the quick answer on the plumbing questions. I hope it helps someone elso too.
