Help me figure out my fuel pump, tank and line situation.

Okay, here's what I have to work with... rusty as hell. For the record, it's a 6.0L from a 2001 1500HD going into a 1994 Chevy Cheyenne 2500 4wd with a 4l80e.

What I am wondering is:

a) do I need to find and use a new stock sending unit OR can I find and use something different.

b) I know I need a high flow fuel pump (as described in many other threads) but if I don't reuse this type of stock sending unit, what other options might there be.

c) a fuel cell or a new stock tank?

d) what should I do about lines? the stock lines ripped apart as I was removing the engine and trans and split right near the filter in the frame rail.

Thanks!

Bump... Nobody

You could get a fuel cell with an inline walbro if you wanted. But fabrication to get it to fit would be a necessity

Man, is that truck rusted! Your putting new power in that truck? To answer your question about the tank & sender...I would buy & install new, stock pieces. LMCTruck & others sell what you need. Personally, I would just sell a truck that was that rusted though. Just me.

Its a 15 year old plow truck from upstate NY... What do you expect?
Besides, I want to keep it for sentimental reasons and if I were to sell it I'd get prolly $1500 with the plow and then spend $5k min to replace it. Makes more sense to extend its life to me. Just me.

You're right tho will prolly just repl with stock components except fuel pumperino.
