that helps alot then.
do you want to run the in tank pump or do you want a mechanical block mounted one? I would guess that yours is machined, mine is, but only one way to tell for sure, pull the fuel pump plate off the block and see if it's machined for the fuel pump push rod. if so you can get a fuel pump push rod, fuel pump, gasket etc. then clamp on a piece of rubber fuel hose if you want, or maybe compression fitting and cut the flare off the old flex lines, something like that and run your fuel lines to the block mounted pump. Then you can remove the intak, or leave it in place, You can unhook it's relay and fuel pump fuse and it won't get power, as far as I know the gauge will work fine doing this, my monte carlo did.
If not then it's time for a bypass style regulator. Figure out what fittings and sizes you need to connect the old lines to it. I have no clue on them.
You also do know that you need a new intake for the carb right? I'm not sure what issues you'll run into with the bolt holes for the stock braces on the accessories doing so. if you do away with them and run old style v-belts then it's not an issue. or you can upgrade to the alum. style brackets and it bolt it fine, the alum. ones are from the newer trucks 90 or 91 and up, and that will let you use or keep most if not all of your accessories you have now.
Going v belt would require a standard rotation fan and water pump, as well as alt. or maybe pulley change, and then power steering pump and/or pulley swap.
You may be able to find an intake with accessory holes and it work for the braces, not real sure on it.
I know to go with an hei type distributor you need to find what wires you need and change them, cut splice, run new whatever. I am curious on what exact wires it is and what needs done because I may do it myself at some time to my 88.
