build sheet on saleens for 1990 and previous years did not modify fuel systems in anyway to my knowledge, tanks were either 12.5 gallons or 15...which ever stock was post pics of your complete interior , underhood and suspension, it will be easy determine by looks of it if it has any and all things saleen equipped them with, go through the check list I posted and see where if at all you meet the criteria of a saleen build

Well, it may not be a saleen, but it is a california Special. It has a plaque with special vin #'s. It does have a sun roof, Saleen Suspension... It doesn't have the Body kit or center console delete. I am not sure... Ill get more pictures.

correct me if Im wrong but cobra's and saleen 5.0's have slightly ported e7 heads and a little bit of a bigger cam. Also I do not have a plaque, but I do know that it is a California EDITION not Special. Is there a difference in the 2?
