Hooking up braided stainless to 87 sender question

[High ho silverado]

Don't the blazer sending units have braided steel on them, the 89 I scrapped did or is that only a 88 up thing. On my 87 ls swap I got fi safety push ons to -6 and jus cut off the barb on the end of the lines and used them to push loc hose and then hardline fittings to the metal line, it worked perfectly, but that was for a truck tank sender, I'd post pics but my fone won't for some reason.
