Sounds like the senior model Clippers are covered and just those with the smaller model Clippers will need to figure out a fuel sender and probably need longer straps or maybe Tee bolts to mount what I believe will be a deeper tank.
I don't remember the exact configuration of the tank sender mount but perhaps the
Ford 6 hole to 5 hole adapter plate will match the S-W senders Clippers use. Some Fords used the same heater type senders as the 48-50 models so possibly the mount is the same. I don't find any specs on hole circle diameters given with the adapter but Classic does have others.
The harder part will be getting the exact differences between the 17 and 20 gallon senders. Once a 17 gallon sender is compared and measured then if it is only a matter of arm length, cutting the shorter arm and adding a piece of stiff hardened wire by using a pair of crimp electrical butt splice connectors should be able to bring the arm to the correct length.
