Yup that will fix the problem. Than I just need a new pickup screen and gaskets to complete the tank.

I was able to get some parts sold, woo hoo.

I had the oil cooler fixed on Friday, I still need to install it though. I'm going to order the pickup screen and gaskets on Monday. I also plan to have the tank dipped this week.

I ordered the fuel tank parts and will have the tank dropped off to have dipped today. I should have the tank back by thursday or friday. I will have the car back on the road this weekend.

I have the car back together and all seems well right now. The gas tank still had a bunch of surface rust even after having it dipped but all the loose stuff should be taken care of. Also the oil cooler seems to be leak free.
