On my 63 dodge wagon, I'd like to run a 3/8" fuel line.   Does
anyone have a suggestion or any tips on welding in a 3/8" bung 
at the bottom of the tank to use a pickup?  would it need to be a
NPT female end, or is there a different type of steel bung I should 
weld in?

This tank was vatted and treated with some chemical liner many years
ago and since that time, it has never held gasoline, so its okay
to weld on.

what type of filter should I use?  one of those large cannister
filters?

The original pickup was 5/16" of course.  I found an NOS pickup that
is approximately the same size & shape pickup tube, and the sending unit 
float is  nearly the same travel.  I believe it is a pickup & sending
unit from a D-100 trunk.   since the sending unit is so pristine, I don't 
what to modify it by trying to replace the 5/16" tube with a 3/8" tube,
so I'm exploring the bung route....

this is for a street car with a 440.
