Wonder if a guy could make this go down further into the tank?

What is currently in there. Only problem is, it don't go down all the way from what I'm told, and so when it is about 3/16 of a tank, it thinks it is empty, when there is actually some gas still in there.
Could a person could get it closer to the bottom? I haven't seen it out of the tank, but does it look like those hoses could be lengthened so it would drop down in the tank further??

I never put it in, and haven't seen it other than through the fill hole, but I'm wondering since it looks like it is not over 1/2 the distance of the pump, over the fill hole, if:
1. I could remove that tray under the pump? Not sure what it's purpose is?
2. Could jog those lines over enough to where I could sit that pump down in the baffle where it probably should have been in the first place?
3. Would that be a special fuel line hose it uses?

They way it is now, when I get to 3/16 of a tank, you better be putting in some gas, or get used to pushing.

Or would I be able to fool the gas tank float, so that when it is about 3/16, it thinks it is on E? Might be hard to figure out what that point is, exactly.
