    Put the sending unit in the tank, set the tank in. It is a 77 tank, lines up with most of the holes on my 71 cab (changed tank mounts in mid year 69)

    Today me and dad painted his Lincoln parts and my fuel tank, hood, and random parts. I have to mount the hood on it and finish lining everything up, sand and paint the exterior.

    Detroit Diesel 8.2 turbo in F-500?

    But yes, I have no problem switching to 9/16. I was looking at a thread chart at work and 15mm wasn't even listed.

    I may do something like that, we will see. This project will stay on the back burner until the superduty and the 68 are done.

    I finished the patches in the hood, going to get the underside prepped for paint, then after it is painted it will get installed on the truck and when the fenders are ready the whole thing will get painted.

    They both have the 14mm head bolts. I would like to upgrade them, but finding information and bolts has been a struggle.
