OT - but I need help!

I have asked these question at the S10V8 board but it is not as fast as this board as far as getting answers.

1. Not S10 related- I've got a set of full lenght headers on my 72' C10 wiil they fit a 78 Camaro?

2. I'm putiing my 350/th350 in an 88 or 89 S10. The S10 has an electric fuel pump and had throttle body injection on the 4.3. The pump is in the tank. I would like to just run the manual pump on my 350 with a Holley 650. How can I get rid of the electric pump? OR What is the best way to regulate the pressure down to 7 or 8 psi and still run the return line that the electric pump needs. I
KNOW ITS OFF TOPIC. Oh yeah, I don't really want to changed the tank.

I'm doing this so I can have something to play with while I finish the frame off on my 72.

I put a small block in my Trooper with an in tank pump. I just pulled the pump off the bracket and bent up a section of steel line to fit, then soldered it into place. I found an old sock(strainer, whatever you want to call it) off an old pickup (not throwing things away has it's advantages) and hose clamped it to the end of the new steel line.

Let me get this straight. You removed the pump from the bracket that bolted to the tank. Then you bent some steel line to work as the fuel pickup and bolted it all back in place. How did you hook up the fuel line on the outside of the tank?
