Keep up the good work

Thanks for the support!! Good to know I will be helping a fellow swapper!

The plan is to remove the plastic bucket on the 01 pump assy and cut/modify the rods to be shorter, probably around 2". Then reassemble it, cut hole in the tank, and put it all together!! I know it sounds simple... Just got to get to doing it!

Then I have to make some "bastard" lines from my stock 87 fuel lines and the stock 01 lines and hook it all up.

Mounting the evap shoulding be too difficult, just have to find a place for it and fab up some mounting brackets.

Good luck man, start a build thread! I'd read it!
