Default gas tank question

Ok let me start off by saying I have a 89 camaro 305 tbi. I am in the process of building a lq9 bored and stroked. I bought a 4th gen fuel tank fully loaded with hose and everything.
My question is could I put in the 4th gen gas tank now, run all new ptfe fuel lines and a regulator up front. Then run a line from the regulator to the tbi and regulate the fuel pressure to the tbi specs?
Then I would be able to get rid of the stock evap stuff and get a head start on the ls swap.

You're wanting to know if you can just use a regulator to set pressure to where the TBI needs it.
As long as you can get a regulator able to bypass enough fuel to get it down to ~13 PSI or so, then yeah.

Ok perfect. And then I would be able to take out all the stock charcoal canister since the 4th gen has it all built in right?
