Ok. Tank arrived. Not perfect but better.
I've already gone too far down the rabbit hole in this. Wish I had a laser level to work visible lines.
Sending unit opening is also different on the Taiwan tank

Looks like the cup holder is in the correct position in the spare tire well. A necessity to keep that adult beverage container aligned when mounting that .................. fill in the blank

I think your plan is solid, you have removed multiple variables from the equation. You can pull the old body out tear it apart and put it back together at your own pace with no pressure (pun intended) and have a backup you know is right.

What would you drink? That thing only holds enough for one!
Off work already, too early to head to concert so eating lunch. Bigtime State Patrol code run going onto Island this morning, had wife look it up on social media, shooting, may have involved traffic stop and suspect ran, still an active scene when I came back home "Monkey Hill Rd" about 12 Staters down that road, had it blocked off. Waiting for more details
Wow has to be different year applications. Whatever you do with the sending unit re use the original lock ring the new ones are way to thin to seal right and WILL leak

My point is/was, by staying with the same brand as the failed (possibly) valve body, there’s no way to rule out the design of the valve body being the cause. Same brand means you’re hoping it’s a QC issue and not a design flaw
Yes. I recall your post around that. I have the original and an NOS one... Along with the 5 or 6 that I received with the tanks and other things

It’s also different between the A bodies of the same year..
Only one part number for 64 A-bodies

Oh I know. But on the 71-76, the gas tanks are listed as correct for both dart swingers, scamps and dusters, from experience, that is not the case at all. Not unless you want it rubbing on the rear pumpkin.

I mean in the actual 64 Parts book... Not the retailer catalogue
I saw 10,400 on the dyno tach. It's a 306 cube Mopar small block.
