What i did was weld a sump on my tank and ran 3/8 fuel line all the way up. As for the wiring I took out the computer and all the wiring with it except for the electric fan wires. I had those go into a relay then to a switch in the car. Everything else is pretty basic. I used a Hanes Manuel for some of the ignition stuff.
