I remember a person that adapted an intank pump to an early sending unit assembly, can't find the link. Anyone have it? Iam using the stock tank also.

I put a dual intank pump in my factory tank using a modified Crown Vic sender carrier. It woked, but the problem with the Nova tank is it's height, or lack of. I ended up with a Rick's Stealth tank (which is for sale). Rick's tank with the aeromotive pump inside works great, but Now I am going drag racing so it does not fit the bill anymore.
Good luck with your Nova.

I dont think you can fit a stock pump on it due to tank is to short. I had the stock pump from the ls1 camaro and it does not fit.

I know Rock Valley will build a circular sump with the pump and wiring which will go into the top of any tank.You have to give them the depth,i'm sure there are height limitations,I really don't know if a nova tank is deep enough or not.You can send them your stock tank and they will install it for you, provided its a new tank.I know its pretty pricey though.On my camaro I used the sending unit out of a F.I. S10 Blazer,because it was the most shallow sending unit avalible and built an aluminum tank around it,it was way cheaper then those thousand dollar ones
