As far as the sending unit goes, try www.dixiemontecarlo.com maybe they can help? Any of the OE FI setups I do believe were all "low pressure" TBI for the 4.3L "Z" engines. I'm not too sure what other modifications may be necessary.
For the runners you can try hawksthirdgen.com for some OE stuff or possibly summitracing.com or jegs.com for some aftermarket goodies.
I hope this helps!

Lots of people looking for those sending units. Seems they have been discontinued, best of luck there. As for the runners, check out thirdgendotorg. Lots of TPI parts in the classifieds. Oh, welcome to the site.
