Default Fuel Level Sending unit for 2002 Firebird.

My fuel gauge has stopped working and Im positive its the sending unit. Where can I get a fuel level sending unit? Delphi says they're now obsolete and the Autoparts stores are saying you have to buy a whole new fuel pump assembly... thats $400 and I wanted to upgrade to a Racetronix Pump for an upcoming motor swap...

So my question is

#1 - Can I buy the sending unit seperately? and if so from where?

#2 - If I can't, does the Racetronix Fuel pump come with its own sending unit for the fuel gauge?

#3 - If the above two don't work... can I buy an LS1 Fuel Pump assembly and get the gauge working and build my V8 to 400 HP on a stock LS1 pump?
