    Has anyone been able to adapt a modern electric sending unit to a stock Ford Model A tank?

    If so, please share what you did.

    Thanks.

    YES! On the "Stupid Car" I put an electric pump down on the frame. Remember to keep it as far away from the exhaust as possible or put a heat shield on. I than ran the gas line back up through the floor board and out the original hole and through to stock gl*** bowel filter. All looks very stock. You should run a pressure regulator and might need a little better in line filter than the stock A. Hope this helps.
