If you do the search from your house it will get places closer to you.
Thanks! I wasn't aware of that site, but they say there's a place about an hour and a half from here that supposedly has one, I'm going to check with them.

If you cant find a decent 87 tank, I suspect you could use the newer tank and either
1. Take the pump out and replace it with a piece of tubing of the same dia. as the pickup.
2. Use the pump, bypass your mechanical pump and install a regulator with a return line.

If you do have to use a newer tank, get the electrical plug in case its different.
