I seriously doubt that.

The early cars had a sender with provisions for only two wires; one was for 
fuel level and the other for the idiot light.   A small separate tab was 
affixed under one of the sender mounting bolts for the ground.

I would presume this to be the case for the new sender too, although the easy 
thing to do is just ask Wilkinson???
