I used an in tank pump for a TPI camaro. Plug and play and works perfectly.
 
A particular year or doesn't matter which TPI pump?
 
Ripped this from my build thread...

on Russel's advice I picked up an in tank fuel pump for a 92 Camaro with the TPI 350. It runs the right pressure and volume, and more importantly is a direct fit for where the TBI pump was.

Delphi PN# FE0110 is what i ended up with.

Hope that helps.

Hope that helps.
it does, thank you very much. Then did you just run a in line filter? Out of the same year, being a '05 and return less, is there anything special that I need to do?

Most people use an ACDelco EP381 for in tank setups. Thats what I have read over the past couple years, reading through many swap threads. It'll be what I use when I do my 5.3 swap sometime in the future.

thanks Doppler, hopefully when you do yours you can look me up and I will help you out, that is what makes this a cool hobby.
 
I kept the TBI in line fuel filter on the frame rail, from there was a few hundred bucks worth of Russel and Earls fittings, a swanky firewall mounted FPR with gauge and a bunch of braided stainless line.

I'll do some digging for part numbers and stuff. Russel made a list and picked it all up for me...

You might try digging through the last part of my build. I really can't remember what all got posted as far as pn#'s though.
 
As always I really appreciate the help. Speaking of help like a idiot I decided to order the clutch kit from Advance Adapters being I using their bell housing (running a NV4500) and figured this would give the least gray hair. I get it on time from Summit like usual, perfect right, nice weekend Weather wise, I will have the whole thing in on Saturday, right? No, I get a sealed box with bolts, throw out bearing, spacer and only a flywheel. No clutch, no pressure plate. WTF?
Call summit, they call AA, go figure AA is closed. Now I can't get it in this weekend and now I have to prove I didn't get it. Every time I order anything with Advanced Adapters name I get a royal pain in the a**. To think I ordered a kit that Is overpriced to make it easier...so much for that. Should of ordered the GM flywheel from summit for $238 and reused the new clutch pack I have. Now I have a $639 bill. I am a dumb sh**, sorry for the rant. Just running out if time to get this done and get it in the garage.

Anyways, any additional info on the fuel line would be awesome. Sweet, did you buy your pump from Napa or something like that or online?
 
I ended up go with the same and the corvette regulator.
