1978-79 Bronco COYOTE SWAP Fuel Tank and Fuel Pump
Twenty gallons. Center fill. Coyote pressure from the first crank. A Coyote will not live on a mechanical pump and a stock Bronco tank. It wants an in tank pump sitting in fuel; steady pressure at idle and at 6000 rpm; and a tank that does not slosh the pickup dry on an off camber climb. This one is built to order in .125 aluminum with two baffles and a machined non vented threaded cap. Roughly 20 gallons; cut to live between the frame rails and crossmembers of a 1978-79 Bronco. Your pump choice sets the ceiling. The stock Mustang GT pump is rated to 500 horsepower; the 2020 Shelby GT500 supercharged pump is rated to 850. Both come with the fuel level sensor attached so there is no separate sending unit to buy or calibrate. A rollover safety vent is included. It is a ball check valve that lets the tank breathe and blocks the vent port if the truck ever ends up on its roof; with a small float inside that keeps slosh out of the vent hose on an ordinary day. Built to order on a 4-6 week lead time. Plan the rest of the fuel system while it is being welded.
Install Level: Advanced
Built to order; published lead time 4-6 weeks.
Center fill tank with a machined non vented threaded cap.
The tank may require relocation of the rear crossmember.
Fuel line and fittings are not included; designed for a returnless style fuel line system.
A pulse width modulated pump control system is recommended and sold separately.
Our custom 1978-1979 Bronco Coyote Swap Tank is perfectly designed for your Coyote Swapped truck. This built to order tank uses a Mustang GT fuel pump and can be upgraded to a supercharged GT 500 pump to fit your Coyote Swap needs. No need to purchase a sending unit because our GT pumps have their own sending units attached. We recommend adding one of our GT or GT 500 Pulse Width Modulated Control Systems to provide a standalone, manifold referenced, PE-type returnless fuel system. As shown in photos, this is a center fill tank and includes a safety rollover valve. See Description for more information on parts and specs.

Pump Assembly: We include and use your choice of a 2020 Shelby GT500 supercharged pump with a 850 horsepower rating for your supercharged Coyote Swap or a stock Mustang GT pump with a 500 horsepower rating.
Fuel Level Sensor: Our Mustang GT and our 2020 Shelby GT 500 supercharged coyote pumps have an attached fuel level sensor.
Rollover Safety Vent: We include a rollover safety vent, which is a simple ball check valve that allows air in and out of the tank as needed. In the event of a rollover, the ball will drop and block the vent port from leaking fuel. Additionally, it also has a small float inside that will help reduce the amount of liquid entering the vent hose from fuel slosh during normal everyday use.
Pulse Width Modulated Control System: We recommend adding one of our applicable Pulse Width Modulated control systems which we offer on our site. We offer a Ford GT and a Ford GT 500 Supercharged. These are simple to use and the stand-alone manifold pressure sensors tell the Pulse Width Modulated controllers how to adjust the fuel pressure. Just like a manifold referenced mechanical fuel pressure regulator, simply connect the hose from the pressure sensor mount to the intake manifold, set the fuel pressure according to the need, and you’re done. Base fuel pressures at idle are typically between 42-60psi, but the controller has much greater range if needed.
Fuel Line System: Designed to work with a returnless style fuel line system. We recommend using our FFG custom kit which includes the line and all the fittings to go from the fuel tank and connect to the coyote fuel rail. Fuel filter and clamps are also included in this kit.
Bed Fill: Standard bed fill tank with cap. The standard bed fill tank will come with a threaded cap and neck as shown in the pictures which sticks up approx. 3” and sits just below the bed floor. This will require you to have a bed fuel door.
