Electrical

What do I need to know when ordering a Ron Francis Wiring Kit?

To make sure your Ron Francis Kit is best for your needs, we would like to know the following:
1) What Make, Model, and Year is your vehicle?
2) What engine are you using?
3) What distributor do you have?
4) What column are using?
5) Where is the location of your ignition switch?
6) Where is the location of your dimmer switch?
7) What alternator are you using - one-wire or original externally regulated? If you are using an externally regulated alternator, then Ron Francis recommends that you purchase their regulator (#VR-88) to be sure that there are no problems caused by an old regulator.

Fuel Tanks

What else will I need for my new fuel tank?

You will need a fuel sending unit with a five-hole bolt pattern and you may need an in-tank fuel pump depending on your set up. Your fuel sending unit usually comes with your aftermarket gauges. If you do not have a sending unit you will need to know the OHM range on your current fuel gauge to determine the best one for your vehicle.

Will my stock fuel sending unit work in a Tanks, Inc. fuel tank?

If your fuel sending unit has a 5-hole bolt pattern then it will work.

Radiators

How can I be sure that the inlet and outlet holes for my radiator match up with my engine?

If you are ordering a PRC radiator for a Chevy, the default or standard location and size of the inlet hole is center top at 1 1/2" and the outlet hole is passenger side bottom at 1 3/4". You should always check your set-up to make sure this will work. If your engine is different than a SBC or BBC you must let us know so that we can get you the radiator that will fit your needs. Likewise, if your vehicle is a Ford, you must let us know what engine you are using. We have a radiator specification form that you can follow and fill out for any special modifications or needs. Look for it on our HOME PAGE in the left column under MORE!

Suspensions

Do I need a sway bar for my air suspension?

Sway bars are very difficult to fit on air front suspensions and are not recommended. A rear sway bar will control the body roll effectively and will make it much easier to fit.

What size axel diameter will your Spring Perches fit?

These perches fit very nicely on a 2-1/2" tube. We would not recommend them for a tube that is less than 2-1/4". So if your tube falls between 2-1/2" and 2-1/4" they should fit just fine.
