I just talked to Ron (great guy and very knowledgeable and friendly!) and worked things out with the pump and my LTD LX single pump conversion. I emailed him the link to this thread and he found the same pump.

Got lucky and found a 87/88 t-coupe in the first yard I went to. Grabbed the fuel lines and the metal tank vent line just in case I needed it.
But here are pictures with the lines still on the t-coupe.
Grabbed the clips and the bolts as well.

Well, seems I got the same pump Scott got... A pump for a grand national!
Ron at APE looked at this thread and confirmed that I have the correct pump.

Well, sunday Robert and I tackled the single fuel pump conversion to my LTD LX.
It was a bitch and it was hot.
But, even with a few set backs it turned out good!

The 20 gallon tank out of the car. You can see the build sheet. I cleaned the living **** out of this. Inside of the tank was super clean.

I screwed the lines to the pan just like on the thunderbird turbo coupe I took the lines from. There was a SLIGHT difference around the pan where the diff was.

We finished fairly late. I think I left Roberts place at around 9:45PM or so. Glad he has flood lights. His strength really really helped. The one thing he and I totally forgot about was taking a picture of the sender/hanger with the new pump in it. I'd like to think I did a bitchin job on soldering the pump power lines on the hanger. NO I did NOT use butt connectors.

I wonder if the wagon fuel tank and wagon aftermarket sending unit are still available for purchase? It would be nice to have new new back there. This thread is gold by the way.
I've bought 2 of the pump hangers (don't ask) at Rock Auto I think, and am pretty sure I've seen the tanks available new too.

ZephyrEFI, you wouldnt happen to have that other fuel pump hanger would you? It seems like the aftermaket pump hanger/sending units are no longer produced. Can't find one... The sedan sending unit obviously doesn't work on the wagon tank. Please let me know.
Bump for an important thread that I am gonna need real soon.
Tank is still available but the pump has been disco'ed for two years now.

I wish that Airtex e2146s were still available. I will just have to repair my intermittently working sending unit.
