If you are looking for an all in one ready to run aluminum fuel cell then look into Boyds tanks. https://www.fueltankparts.com/univer...efi-tanks.html
I already had a plastic fuel cell so I bought the new Holley EFI conversion setup and I'm very happy with it. Just make sure you get the right bolt pattern for the cell you buy.

On fuel injection projects I like to use in-tank pump. The pump to use in a stock setup would be the Walbro 255. Be careful here, there are many off shore knockoffs that will fail in a short time. For the design of the pump housing go to TANKS inc and look at their setup...or buy one from them. For the fuel lines I have discovered the OEM style nylon lines. Requires a special tool or research how to make one. Nylon hose is sold at your local parts store in coils.
