I believe yes it will, the whole pump assembly is different and in a different location but I'm about to put a 99 tank into my 90. I have them side by side and they look physically the same. I know the strap location is identical too. Hope it helps.

Fit will be the same but connectors and fuel line fittings are different.

Well, the sender is part of the pump isn't it? If so the plastic tanks have them in a completely different location.
