Gas tank swap
Does anyone know if the 94/95 tanks will fit in a fox? Or better yet the pick up and sending unit fit in a fox tank? I know they are close in shape.
Why do you ask?
When I do my interior swap to a sn interior I want to use a stock gauge cluster if possible and I can't use a fox sending unit and get a correct fuel level reading. Also the pick up tube is bigger in diameter and as everyone knows bigger fuel lines are needed for bigger setups
. And yea I know aftermarket gauges and all that but I want stock (terminator,mach,or bullitt gauge cluster probably).

Well thank you for giving the obvious I didn't think about doing that I usually do lol. Tanks are 84-97 (EFI's), tank straps are the same, and obviously sending units are different from 93 to 94. They just don't sell the pickups (pump mount basicly) JUNKYARD! So I guess I am gonna replace my tank, get a sn sending unit and run the rubber line for a pickup that I already have and be set for what I have.
FYI! Latemodel now sells tanks sumps that you can weld in yourself with either 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch fittings!!!!

You can buy a pickup for about 100 dollars that is for use with an external pum for your tank. It goes right in where the old one was. It has a 10an outlet and a 6an return. I got one of these for mine because I didn't want a fuel cell in this car. I used an adapter to bring it down to 8an line and plugged the return. Here is a link if interested.

I believe the sn pick up is a -10 outlet to. I wish I could find the article one of the magazines.
Good find though port, thank you. I was gonna maked my own fuel lines this time when I come back and that wouls be perfect and I don't have to buy a new tank bc I already have a EFI tank on the car. I just need to take a wite brush to it to clean some small surface rust spots
