     Why do you need fuel pumps in the tanks ?  Why not put an inline fuel pump with pressure regulator, that way you don't have to drop the tanks to put in on or when it needs srvd.

#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

Yes you can use 1987 Sending units in the pre-87 tanks, just don't run it really low on gas.
