Converting Elec Fuel Pump to Mechanical

Hello, Just pulled out my fuel injected v6 and put in a v8 carb. It had a in tank elec pump. I am converting to a mechanical pump and was wondering if i could use my old sending unit if i pulled out the elec pump and replaced in with hard line going down into the tank? and is there any other major changes I need? Thanks for any and all info!

this method has been pretty well noted here:

it is doable, shouldn't require anything else done to the sending unit otherwise.
