Thanks, Brian. Sure looks like the Spectra is the same style unit that Quanta and Classic have. With Classic's price, am wondering if maybe theirs is sourced overseas or if the site is way out of date. Napa has the FG97A listed on their site at $109 which may be the same one our vendors are selling with a bit of cushion added.

Good question about the difference in senders. Tank size is the same and the electrical function is same as the 52 on being the resistance type unit. The gauge is even the same one for 51-2.

Possibly there was a slight error in the bend and wrong reading in the 51 units that was corrected with a new piece. There is an SC article listing the correct float distance for 51 "after numerous requests from the field" for the information.
