Swap to plastic gas tank?

I have a 93 Camaro with a steel gas tank, and I was reading somewhere that the 99-02 cars had plastic tanks, and weighed 22 lbs, as opposed to 40 for the steel one. What mods are necessary to make this work? I know the LS1's use a different fuel pump assembly with the plastic tank, but would the tank be compatible with the factory 93 fuel pump assembly, or would I need to splice in and run a 99-02 fuel pump assembly??

Re: Swap to plastic gas tank?

Hmm, after reading through some threads here, it seems that they don't really weigh all that much less than the steel ones. Can anyone verify either claims?
