Default Need help picking a Fuel Pump.....

I need help picking a Fuel Pump for my swap..... Like most people doing swaps I'm doing mine on a budget and looking for the cheapest yet most efficient option for my setup. I have a 72 Cutlass and going with an 2002 6.0 with LS3 heads/intake with Nick Williams TB. Can anyone advise me on which direction I should go with my Fuel Pump setup?

1. Use stock tank and pickup with an extra return feed and an external fuel pump.
2. Use an 94-96 Caprice/Impala tank that has an intake fuel pump.
3. Use an aftermarket tank with either a built in pump or external pump.

Any parts numbers or exact info will be appreciated as alot of the posts I've read will mention names of parts but no exact info. I've tried to call Summit Racing and Jegs for guidance with this but they weren't much help either ;-(

Tanks inc makes a universal intank sender with a Walbro pump in it. I use them all the time for retro swaps. Give me a call I can help you get it setup.

I'm considering the 94-96 Impala gas tank swap as my car hasn't been run in a few years and not sure I want to even want to chance it being rusted or anything. Can anyone chime in with more info and part numbers required if I were to go that route.

Would also like to talk to you about the Tanks Inc setup you mentioned, can you add your number so I can call you?
