Default 99+ tank swap help please! Doing this tomorrow!

I have to drop my tank tomorrow so I can install my new 6 point rollbar, so I figured it would also be a good time to install a 99+ tank on my 98 TA. I got the tank off a member here at LS1tech. What I need to know is, what else do I need to get the new tank installed? Is the ring on the top the same? Can I take my pump/level transmitter assembly out and bolt it right in the new tank? What about the EVAP cannester stuff? I think I need to order a filler spout as I didn't see one with the one I bought. Any and all tips will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

None of that stuff is the same. What is wrong with your stock tank? The steel tank is much easier to mount a fuel pump in.

I'm working on weight savings now, that's all. From what I've researched, the 99+ tanks are 18+ pounds lighter. And I've practically done everything else to my car, weight savings is the only thing left. Besides, my Racetronix pump was starting to get weak already, so I had to pull it to replace with a walbro 340 anyway.

I did find the filler spout in the tank last night though, so the only major question is, can I get the in tank pump and fuel level bracket to work on a plastic tank?

And if not, what part(s) do I need to pick up to make it work?
