'87 tank/fuel pump supplier

I've hung around reading all your great threads on fuel and electrical. I figured this weekend I'm taking the plunge into fuel system set-up. I have two questions and I hope someone can help. I've read threads where a lot of you have ran the '87 fuel tank for its direct fit into the K10 trucks and because it was the first year Chevy went to in-tank fuel pumps and EFI.

I've also read about folks utilizing a Tahoe's fuel pump assembly. Questions are as follows:

1)What supplier is the best and easiest to get the '87 tank from? Exact Part Number? I have seen some on RockAuto for the R/V series trucks, the part numbers I've found are listed below in the pic.


2) Regarding the in-tank fuel pump, whats the best route? Get the complete assembly from an early thousands Tahoe, or go with an '87 sending unit and but a Walbro 255 lph fuel pump or similar LS capable pump? Theres a pic of an '87 sending unit I found that I'm thinking I can install a good LS rated(capable) fuel pump.
