so let me ask this. I really dont want to but a new sending unit. Has anyone tried to modify the stock pickup? I was thinkin I could use some 1/2" or 5/8" aluminum hard line for a pickup, then a hardline to AN fitting, then a AN fitting threw the sending unit. Return would just be a AN fitting secured to the sending unit.

Or could I just drill a few holes on the fuel tank for some AN fittings?
