Randall et al,

I don't have formal documentation, just empirical evidence.  I checked
the pictures of TS77028L, and sure enough there are pedestals where the
bottom-front of the gas tank rests.  The pre 60K and post 60K tanks are
shaped similarly, I believe that they are different only in outlet
configurations.  The trunk floor sheet metal of each model is different
so I imagine the pedestals compensate for that.  I could be wrong,
though...it's been known to happen!

Well, dang it, can't someone with the documentation handy help me out
here ?

I'm pretty sure the pedestals were introduced with the body redesign at
TS60K, but I haven't had time to dig through my documentation on the
subject
or look at my cars.  Perhaps I shouldn't have said anything.  The gas
tanks
