Fuel gauge resistance should be 3 ohms fully raised, 33 ohm half raised an d110 ohms fully lowered. As far as fuel pumps go how much hp is this going to have the more hp themore and bigger fuel pump you need along with a regulator. Try one of the truck magazines for off roaders.

The spec s I gave are the correct ones. You cold put in what jegs says and the gauge may be off a little why do you want a fuel cell in your stock vehicle anyhow?

What I sent you was the stock spec why don't you just get a custom tank made or look into ones without a fuel cell, if it's just a normal truck that isn't raced then why put in a fuel cell i'm sure you can get an aluminum made much cheaper if you just look online. That way you can use stock components. You could always put another engine from another vehicle if you wanted if you wanted to hop it up. Also there are universal turbocharger kits on the market you could put on as well.A lot of us guys just fix the stuff that is out there and don't mess around with odd ball stuff like you are trying to build.
