What irritates me is that the otherwise-identical one listed there that is already configured to fit a '55-'59 Chevy truck is $218. Doesn't cost an additional cent to make the sending unit hole a different shape but they're sticking us for an extra $100 because they can. Damn.

The $218 one is for EFI and it does have internal modifications and external changes. Its nothing like the $80 tank and it won't work for a stock mustang car. Its coated steel and has the proper holes for EFI pump and sender. The $80 stock tank has one hole near the bottom of the tank for a pickup and sender. It won't work for EFI at all without a lot of modifications.
