Yep, as Joel stated above the 82 "in tank" pump and sending unit can be removed through the fill hole in the body of the car without tank removal once the filler door and ring are removed from the hole. It takes some twisting and turning and a good sprinkling of blue language but it will come out when you get the thing turned just the right way. The sending unit for your 78 looks very much like the one for the 82 with the exception that the 82 has the fuel pump attached. Id go ahead and order a new sending unit gasket and replace that while I was there.
