Default EFI conversion on a 76

Going to put a FITECH go efi 600 on a 76. Not going to run the command center. Going to run a in-line pump from tank. Do I need to get a new tank or how do I make this one work? Thought about welding a new nipple at bottom of tank for supply and using the factory sending unit as the return but the tank has the rubber liner in it. Any suggestions?

Thanks Casey

'76 has a bladder in the tank so welding a nipple or sump on will not work. When I went EFI on my '75, I bought a new tank from Rock Auto and cut the upper ring off my old bladder to seal the top of the tank. I then used the Aeromotive Stealth in tank setup with an Aeromotive filter/regulator at the tank. I am using a -8 (1/2") AN feed line to the engine.
