Default G-body fuel pump install info needed

I've searched & cant find what I need so can someone post info, links, pics on how to mount the fuel pump onto the Monte Carlo 4.3L sending unit and where to put the wires from the fuel pump. I also need to know what size hose to buy to run everything. I'm going to use the Push loc hose. Will I need fittings or anything else to complete the fuel system? I have the 4.3L Monte Carlo tank & sending unit, Walbro 255 fuel pump, Corvette filter/regulator, & I have the LS1 intake.

Do you have any information on that one & will I need a fitting on the fuel rail also?

Thanks! Whats your name over there? I searched for about 30-40 minutes & couldn't find the info I was looking for. I did a lot of research before I jumped into the swap & booked marked everything on my computer but it crashed a little while back & I lost it all.

Well it depends on what Rail you have..it's a GM 3/8" Quick Disconnect.

Wiring with that is simple..power to the Pump with a Ground, and the signal to the Fuel Level Gauge, aswell as the Ground needed. Wires are Gray, Pink, and Black..if I remmeber right.
Black is the ground, Pink is the Level, and the Gray is the 12v Power.

Its kjcaprice80, i understand and can relate to the bookmarks and the crashing, I've compiled an entire paper notebook on swap info for that very reason, i always refer to the Mervs thread and several other members here that provide solid info. I'm sure you'll get it figured out.
