Maybe others' experience differs from mine but I must say this:

DONT DO IT MAN! It's a royal pain in the *** to go electric and then try to get the pressures right. I tried EVERYTHING to get my electric pump to pump the right amount of gas and pressure and either it overpowered TWO regulators inline with too much pressure or it pumped too little at the right pressure and my carb starved and the engine stalled. Save yourself a ton of trouble and get the FMS timing chain cover with the hole, an 85 eccentric for your cam and the FMS mechanical pump. I mean you are making the engine "mechanical" instead of "electronic" with a carb so go the whole way and make the fuel delivery mechanical too. With a mechanical pump, no regulators, no worries no nothing, it pumps based on engine rpm and it is constant and low pressure. Easy as pie. Plus no wiring.

Just my thoughts and reflections on my own electric pump/carb nightmares.

As for the tank, drop that sucker, pull the pump out, unscrew the pump motor itself and then take the pump top with the two metal tubes and slip a length of rubber fuel line slightly longer than necessary to reach the bottom of the tank. This way, it turns sideways when it reaches bottom. Then reinstall and you can use your stock fittings and steel fuelline all the way to the front of the car. I've had this setup 2 years and counting and I have yet to have a problem.
