I would keep the mechanical pump and the Quadrajet. Here's the trick to getting them to run strong without one hint of fumes..

Get the gas tank with the three vents at the top front of the tank. Plug the two end vents and connect a 3/8" gas filter to the middle vent port. Make sure the hose has a loop in it and its higher then the tank. Or get a aluminum RCI sumped fuel cell. Mount it in the middle of the trunk, that way you can get gasoline from either side..

Get a vented cap..

Run a 1/4" return line from the supply side of the pump to the carb. I use a tee.. Run the 1/4" tubing line to the tank. If your sending unit top plate has no provisions for the return use one of the plugged vents..

If your running out of gas on the top end, have the stock gas tank sumped for two 3/8" lines. Run another 3/8" line from the tank to the pump connect them both up from the sump to the fuel pump. At the pumps pick up run a tee and connect both 3/8" lines to it from the sump..

This system really works great. I get absolutly no fumes anymore..
