no. 97+ is a pressurized plastic tank with a built in pump/fuel regulator.

you want a 96 prior metal tank that way you can use your stock pump and the pressure regulator on the fuel rail

take the fuel cell and drop it half way through the floor that way it doesnt take up to much room but doesnt hang down to low.

40 gallons? Holy crap that's huge. Someone must have been doing some African safaris or australian outback trail riding
