Anybody used LMC rear mount top fill tank and Holley retrofit fuel module

I am thinking very serious about doing this upgrade on my LS swaped 71 c10.My behind the seat tank is rusty inside and I need a tank anyway.Not to mention getting rid of the noisy frame mounted fuel pump.I know Boyd's is the best way but this way is a lot (almost half$)cheaper.This module seems to stick up out of the tank almost 1.5".I would like to hear some input about this combination.Do you have to remove bed to install tank?

I used the fitech in tank pump set up with my ls3 conversion. Similar to what you are looking at there. Solved the starvation issues i was having with the frame mounted pump, also super quiet. The fitech unit has a built in regulator also. FYI i tried to set it up without the reg but the supplied block off would not seal no matter what i did, so i was forced to use the reg.
you shouldnt have to remove the bed to install the tank.
