I just removed the gas tank on my 68 and found that it has a defective sending unit. It looks like the previous owner replaced the sending unit. Judging from the part number it looks like it is a reproduction unit bought from the Paddock. Has anyone else had problems with reproduction sending units? Would I be better off spending $145 on a AC-Delco unit from Year One or is the quality about the same? Any info would be helpful. Thanks
Just put in one from Ricks first generation camaro parts (sorry about the C word ) and it works great. It was also the cheapest I could find and their customer support was great. Oh, it was a 3/8 with return for $59.00
Beware of the Parts Place's two-line unit. I put one in my car and the union between the two pipes and the circular body leaked. It was poorly brazed. When that unit leaks, guess where it drips...on the transvers muffler. Luckly I had no fire, but had to pull the tank and braze the pipes...no fun.
Bjorn, I thought you told me, and I quote, "never trust ANYONE from Corpus, theres a lotta shady cats down there"? OOPS...maybe I shoulda made this a private message.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.........10,000 comedians outta work, and y'all trying to take more of their jobs :p

Louisiana logic....Boudreaux & Thibodeaux were driving around town one night, and coming up to a red light, Boudreaux runs right through it, not even slowing down.
Thibodeaux says, "Boudreaux, you ran dat red light. Be careful!" Boudreaux tells him, "Don't worry, Hebert does it all de time, and nuttin ever happens."
A few minutes later, another red light, and Boudreaux runs it too. Thibodeaux screams at him, Boudreaux, you keep running dem red lights, you gonna got us killed!"
Boudreaux assures him, "Mais I done tol' you, Hebert does it all de time wid no problem. Don't worry."
The next intersection they come to, they have a green light, and Boudreaux slams on the brakes, coming to a complete stop on green.
Thibodeaux asks him, "Why you stop for de green light?" Boudreaux, looking cautiously both ways tells him, "Mais, if I gots de green light, I gots to be careful, 'cause Hebert might be passing de other way!"
San Antonio educated....A Texan, trying to impress a Bostonian with tales about the heroes of the Alamo, said, "I'll bet you never had anyone so brave around Boston."
"Ever hear of Paul Revere?" asked the Bostonian.
"Paul Revere?" said the Texan. "Isn't he the guy who ran for help?"
