Ya, there's plenty of room on the top of that sender. I just drilled and used a bolt on bung and some washers. It's at the top of the tank, I've had no trouble with the bolt on. I used about 5" of rubber hose on both ends and hard line running down the tank and through the cab.... and so on.

It eliminated the gas smell when parked in the garage, but I still get some carb issues with that ethanol boil off. And it's worse with the low octane gas. That's been my experience so far.
