If I run one of the ones like yours with a similar pump, feed and return lines, etc...can you still use the stock pump assy for the level sender AND if so, is it fairly accurate?

What did all you guys do about the evap system?
I didn't see any mention of it.

Thanks!

yeah, that's it...thanks.
how about the question about the level sender?

Black04...
I don't see provisions on your tank for a filler neck.
Also, what is the fitting(s) on your tank where all the green tape is?
