A lot of the places that I go hunting at are 4x4 access in, and don't lend themselves to pulling a large trailer.
Rock Auto states that the sending unit works 0-95 ohm and I believe that the 72 runs at 0-90, so it should be really close. As far as modifications go, I'm hoping that I won't need to modify the pick-up lines and that I'll be able to run without any issues on the 1/2" pick-up tube.
Glad to hear that the mock-up worked well, it is encouraging to hear. I'm sure there will need to be some minor modifications to get the 35" long tank to fit.

Stock gas GM pick up tube I think is 5/16 maybe 3/8. I know on my 72 it was 3/8, but that fuel injected TBI I think was 5/16. But if it is 3/8", you're good to go. I may have to go custom tank like Ryan mentioned, due to my rear suspension..........................
