Default Drop tank to change fuel pump?Walboro255 High pressure or reg?

Putting in a walbor do you have to drop the tank to put in the new fuel pump or is their an access panel in the back like in 92-95 civics and del sols?

Also do I need the walboro high pressure or regular 255?

I have a vortech 12:1 fmu

but I have SAFC in the car and 450cc injectors so I kinda dont know what to do?

pls advice!

there is no access panel in the 88-91 civic/crxs like there is in the 92+ civics. this means dropping the tank which, in turn, means draining the tank. the best method to draining the tank is to get the tank as low as possible before draining it. draining the tank sucks (it makes a freaking mess no matter what)!

draining it wont be to big of a deal....ill let that **** run in the ground or just let the car idle till it burns it up......is their a gas tank gasket that I should replace after dropping the tank?

Im mechanically inclined but should I just pull the old pump and hook up the walboro like the factoyr one was.
