Default fuel pump replacement

So who has done this here? Trying to see if its a job I could do myself.

From googling, it says the car has 2 fuel tanks, and 2 fuel pumps. The "secondary/passenger" tank and pump push fuel to the primary/driver side tank and pump, which sends it to the fuel rail.

Seems pretty inefficient, but I've seen worse from GM. So the replacement/upgraded pump should be installed in the driver side tank? Does it require dropping the tank? And which pump, LPE or walpro?

Thx
