Default Fuel Pump Conversion

Has any one converted a o.e. style fuel pump hanger for a L.S. conversion?If so what pump is being used? And does the tank need a baffle for the pump?P.S. The car is just a driver. Wes

Not sure what your asking but many of us are running stock tanks with inline walbro 255 pumps and 99-up vet filter regulator. You'll need a sump if you are going to road race or want to run on empty much. Other wise I have had no issues in my driver. I purchased a dual line oem sending unit that has a retrun line to the tank. Here is one for your camaro

If the tank has enough depth you could also do something like this http://www.cardomain.com/ride/716267/3 using a late model sending unit. That way you have an OE pump and the fuel bucket replaces a baffle.
