Hey Rat, I had a '78 Mistress and did the same thing. Mine had a hole under the rear seat where the sender was and then another hole behind the bulkhead and forward of the engines. The second hole was where the valves were to control which tank the engines where running off of. I relocated the valves and connected to the tanks at the point. I wish I had some pictures of it for you, but I don't. Hope this helps.

James
