SKI, thanks for posting this up. A couple of questions:

1- Is there no problem with the electrical crimp connections being submerged in gas?
2- Another post recommends NOT using rubber fuel lines submerged due to deterioration isssues. Did it appear possible to re-use the stock ones for either supply or return lines?

use any fuel injection (appropriate pressure rated) fuel hose

get the clamps good and tight, and try to use the band style clamps as the worm clamps can cut up the hose

bare electrical connections are ok in the gas tank, just dont let them touch.

One thing that I'd like to add is that I highly recommend anyone doing this to have the first step to be pull the float arm off of the sensor. It's extremely easy to bend it. Even bent a tiny bit and it'll throw your gauge off.
