Re: 6.0 swap gas tank??

Not sure what's available for your year truck but for the 55-59, a place like CPP and a bunch of others sell a tank with a bung for supply and return welded on. I think it's also baffled which is nice but not necessarily required. I'd suggest looking for a tank that fits obviously then find one with two bungs for supply and return. Should be all you need.

I wouldn't weld on a used tank but if you had a new one and there is a sump on the bottom, you could weld your own bungs on the bottom and bolt it back on the truck. If you want to use an internal pump, the pump just drops in from the top and has ports for supply and return.
