truck plumbing (brakes and fuel)

ok short and simple .... this is for my trailduster-first gen conversion .... i need to get going to the fuel system and the brake system .... i have basically got to start from scratch

lets start with the fuel, i need some help from some one that might have a early first generation ram that is fuel injected ..... i have been told the fuel injected rams and ram chargers use the same thread pattern on the top of the plastic tank that holds the sending unit down as the diesel tanks do to hold there sending units in ....... is it true?

also what should i use for lines .... i have got the old lines from the 92 diesel .... but they are old brittle and seem to be very small ...... what should i use .... and where do i get fittings to hook to the sending unit and then the pumps .....

brake system ..... i plan to use the dana 60 70 combo that i have got, i need to replace 100% of the brake lines the 60 did not have any on it and the 70s are trash .... i just won a hydroboost setup off ebay that will replace the old master cylinder and booster.....i also plan to do a 4 wheel disk setup for this truck, i also dont want to mess with abs....... i know almost nothing about designing a brake system .... any and all tech on that subject is welcome ......

thanks for everyones help
