Never seen a bolt on pickup, just welded on ones. Is that an OEM tank? I've pulled two OEM tanks both had welded on pickups...no big deal just an observation. My tanks were from a 74, 20 scepter, and a 70, 20 safari.
My original tank on my '72 Seafari had two "bolt-on" ports in the tank top. One was for the fuel pick-up just like above, and one for the sending unit. They were about 10 inches apart. My new tank has a welded pick-up, but retains the bolt-on sending unit.
