Default Fuel tank options, 69 Camaro

At the point of needing to order the fuel tank for my current project, and looking for input on performance to value and simplicity issues. Car is a 3-Linked 69 vert, cam'd/ported head LS3 (for now), realistic output ~500, possibly a bit less. A stock tank fits fine with rear suspension, etc.

Read about Carl's Vaporworx setup which looks great, but not a lot of info on how this can be adapted. I would have no objection to modifying a new repop stainless tank to accomodate, but don't know how hard this is to pull off? Also, I would prefer an in tank fuel pump, AN-6 in and out fittings, with enough pump output to handle slightly higher future output (I don't see going above 650 HP with this car ever, though). In other words, essentially drop in simplicity. I spoke with Rick about his tanks at Del Mar earlier this year and thi sis still an option as well, but I don't really "need" a super nice tank for the car, and a fuel cell is not an option for this build.

Anyone have enough detail on how to pull off the Vaporworx in a stock style tank? Worth the effort?
