One more big task is done on the Mustang we've been calling Large Marge. I ordered a new stock replacement gas tank and all of the parts to convert it to run an internal fuel pump and return line system from Tanks Inc!
In this video, I show how to take a standard stamped steel fuel tank (for the 71-73 Ford Mustang) and install the PA series In Tank Fuel Pump Module to upgrade this old muscle car's fuel system to support running Electronic Fuel Injection for much less money than you think.
I like the longer videos best, but I have seen first hand how busy you are at your new job! Thanks for keeping us up to date with Project Large Marge. The short videos are great too cause they are short and you can get more small projects done.
Can't wait till she's running. Watching your videos are making me want to get one of these mustangs.
Nice to see these conversion being done in a very expert way. One thing that I do different with this type of installation is to use the old fuel pick up for the return line. I block off the return line on the in tank unit and use the old fuel supply line for the return line. One again nice job great that you were able to fit it into the hump area.
So I don't have a Mustang but have been working on a project truck, a 1975 Dodge Power Wagon. I have found all of the videos you have posted helpful in some way or form that I can apply to my application. I would also like to note your videography and editing skills are top notch!
Well, thanks so much! It's really nice to hear and is much appreciated!!!!!!!
I love your videos!! Well Done, you are no doubt a perfectionist...like me!...so I appreciate your skills. You know hard it is to find any informative info on 71-73 Mustangs on you tube? Rather difficult!, I have a 73 fastback with a 2bl 351 that is next in line for restoration after my 65 fastback BUT! I have already put a lot of time into the 73, so I got a 30% head start on that project. I'm, glad I came across these videos as your builds are giving me great ideas, especially this in tank fuel pump build, I am doing this to my 65 but realize from this video that in tank fuel pumps aren't only for Fuel injection but for carb systems as well! and such a great fit for the 71-73 era. I am so blessed this 73 of mine is straight and 100% rust free California car! Nothing beats changing these old jalopies into touring cars making them safe and fun to drive. I also have as posted on my channel a 07 gt500 clone. And now Im convinced to get a roadkill t-shirt!
Great job, somehow I missed this video till now.
YES!!! A new car video at 4am!!!
Yessss another vid.. Always doing amazing things thanks so much again keep it up
+Mackenzie Yarbough I'll keep trying if you guys keep watching...Thanks a bunch!
Love the General Mayhem shirt!!!!
+Robert Ritchey Yeah Buddy!
You maybe aware how hard it is to find A-pillar interior trim pieces for these 71-73 stangs! Well finally Scott Drake came through and now has A-pillar trim pieces available! UNFORTUNATELY THERE FOR ONLY FASTBACK VERSION. Maybe they can be modified to fit a coupe or convertible?
Outstanding quality job!
Thanks!
Tanks for this tutorial, nyuk nyuk nyuk... lol Large Marge is coming along nicely. I'm looking forward to the next episode. ttyl -Drew
+Supradrew™ Thanks Drew, hope you're doing great!
+autoedit I wish I could say Yes I'm doing Great but things are pretty tough right now. If you want to shoot me a PM on Facebook I'll tell you about it, but it's too much to go into here. Your videos along with Roadkill, Dirt Everyday, Mighty Car Mods and a few others are helping to keep my spirits up though. Thx Jason. -Drew
100+ videos and 19,000+ subscribers congratulations
+tommyboy1two Ha, thanks....It's a long slow journey!
autoedit true but hopefully it will end with something very fast.
I have really enjoyed your vids Thanks so much for show how to performs the installs that you have done. Keep up the good work er fun! lol
love the roadkill tee shirt
+BakBer HAHA! Good spot...it's my new favorite shirt!!!
+autoedit I actually posted this before seeing the back of the shirt while you vacuumed out the tank lol. I also watched Thier latest episode before popping over to your channel. btw I am working on a 67 fairlane and found your channel looking for suspension ideas.
Awesome video. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
Just an idea I have a 70 Mach 1 and to make my car safer I put a 22 fuel cell in my car. Cause the bottom of the trunk is the top of the tank.It has fuel safe foam to keep it from sloshing fuel around. I would get some fuel safe foam and put in your tank!It would make it so much safer
very nice video as always nice shirt by the way!
+TheJuanillo13 Hey thanks! Yeah it's my new favorite shirt by far.
I have a different project: LS swap in a Jeep TJ. But, I appreciate the detail you add to your videos (and your work on Dirt Everyday). (Tell Fred to bring his show to Florida sometime.) One question: have you done a video of running the plumbing for the fuel lines back to the engine? I didn't see one. I need to do that for my project and I'm not sure how to accomplish that. Thanks.
I can do something like that for ya. I ran flex hose from the tank to good spot on the rear chassis and then run hard lines to the fuel pressure regulator in the engine bay and flex hose to the throttle body.
What’s with the random short and long bolts?
Hi I was wondering if you could let me know which one of the kits did you get. I went to their website but they have many to chose from. I have a 351 Cleveland and my 73 mach 1. I was thinking of getting the 190 litters per hr that’s rated for 430 hp. I eventually re build the engine and hope to have about 400 hp. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
hey fellow Mustanger, did you finally get one and install it? I have all new mechanical at the moment but haven't fired up anew yet.
Could this system also be used on a 1977 Mustang II?
I want to fit a 5.0 V8 from the Fox body, this one has fuel injection, I'm looking for a system for my Mustang II tank, would it work?
Yes
What is NPT?
Good video this is cool
National Pipe Thread , standard plumbing fittings
I broke the plastic need help repair top or replacing only
DId you tap and thread the bolt in the pickup tube? Or did you just insert it? It looks like you put some epoxy or something in the pickup line with the bolt. I need to do the same thing to my tank
I used JB Weld in there.
How good has that pump been,I'm about to get one but I'm looking for som feedback on it
Great... not a glitch for years.
@@AutoEdits thanks I'm getting it for my dad's 64 c10
aber si alguien es tan amable de esplicarme en cual es el proposito de cambiar la bomba de gas electrica por mecanica grasias
I see you have a Team Losi 8ight T! Ever race em?
AND and cool looking P51! Ever fly heli's
Thanks! Yes I raced that Losi for years and flew heli's for a minute. lol
great job... It's now ready for a LS swap! ;)
That would be gay as hell
I'm going to do this on my mustang, this sounds great. I'm relatively new to all of this though, so is there like a list of the exact parts and tools I'll need for this project? This looks highly doable but I'm a little lost with all the specific pieces, what they're called, where I could find them, etc. If anyone can help that'd be really appreciated
Just watch the video through... you'll get it.
@@AutoEdits can it all be found on the website you linked underneath the video?
what did you do to block off the sending unit tube?
I just mixed up a bit of JB Weld and put that in there. Seems to be holding great.
Fuck ya!
+Steve Allen HaHa! What you said...Ditto!
One quick question. Is that shirt available for purchase? If so, where would I buy it? Great vids btw!
+samuel diaz I think it might be on the roadkill.com website in the shop...or they might have sold out of this particular one but they have some cool stuff there...and thanks for checking out the video!
cutting, welding, body work, gasket sealant... screw me sideways.. the Aeromotive units seems a lot less troublesome..
i have that same system , I need to replace my pump . what is the correct walboro to order ?
Call Tanks, link in description.
@@AutoEdits i dissembled mine and found the model number .... thanks
Hi Jason,
Once again, great vid! I really enjoy following your videos as I have a '73 Mustang (Grandé) myself.
Quick question, though. What are the major benefits of swapping over to an In-tank fuel pump over the stock pump?
+GrandStang I prefer an electric fuel pump anytime I'm building a "sporty" car because of the tune-ability. You can dial in the pressure with a regulator and the beauty of an "in tank" pump is the fact that they tend to be very reliable and definitely much quieter. I needed to go electric for this application and this cool conversion is SO MUCH cheaper than buying a fuel cell.
Thanks for checking out the video and taking a minute to leave a note! I like the video of your Mustang burnout!
+autoedit : Got it! Thanks for info!
Have you had any fuel starvation issues when the tank is low on fuel?
Only once because I ran it completely empty. Otherwise, it seems to be working as expected.
My unit came without the wires attacked I take it they want me to make the attachment
Where is your location
will do pumps work with a stock engine?
Yep! Just need a regulator to limit pressure but absolutely!
Ok thanks.
What happened to your camaro did you sell it?
Yes I sold that awesome car a while ago.
How much did you get for old Large Marge? It's a shame you had to sell her
Sold it for exactly what it cost for my dogs surgery.
@@AutoEdits oh man I hope Pinto made it. I never heard
Yep, Pinto is doing pretty good, thanks.
@@AutoEdits ❤
Just don't run the tank dry with one of those new things
True!
fyi you welded a cadmium plated ring in your gas tank. that is extremely carcinogenic. you want to at the very least wear a respirator when doing that.
That would explain the major hallucinations I was having later that night!
Note to others...be careful about those fumes.
Why would anyone want to put a fuel pump in a tank? Sorry but that is just plain STUPID! That is one of the main reasons fuel injection is a pain in the ass is when the pump quits and you can't put one in without a car hoist. But maybe people are optimistic and they think they will coast right into a shop when the pump quits :)
