using the stock tank will help with the smog issue, but if you want a fuel cell you need an electric fuel pump. The 6AN fittings will screw right in to the stock toyota fuel line threads. You can get the fittings anywhere. Also get a tank with a sending unit. Most are GM (0-90 ohm) so you can hook up the gauge.

That is awsome info bro thanks sooo much.So just get a fuel cell with a GM sending unit?How about keeping the stock tank for now?My only issue is extending that feed line.Can I cut it in between the nuts where its like flexible?Thanks again guys info is awsome

You might want to wait to do this mod before your smog is due. I would'nt cut "between the nuts" all that will do is give you leak problems. That line was not designed to work with a barb, and if you try to hose clamp it, it will just end up cutting the line and it will leak worse than before. All you have to do is get a male and a female 6AN to extend each line. There should only be 3 lines. (send, return, and charcoal canister) Also, 2 wiring harness plugs for the tank. One for the stock sender and one for the in-tank fuel pump. These need to be cut. You also will need to get some flexible fuel line. The Gm sending unit is very simple it has 1 lead that goes to the gauge. o ohms = (empty) 90 ohms = full

Smog is not an issue for me.
But thanks for the info on the an fittings I will buy that asap.
What happens if I snap the hard line when I am trying to lossen the fittings?

just grab on the fitting not the line. The line is stronger than you think, but it will collapse if your trying to wrench on it.
