The only thing to worry about with an inline pump is that it is restricted to what your in-tank can push... unless you eliminate your in-tank pump.

Actually, since the in-tank pump and the inline pump are now sharing the "pressure" creation, they will both flow a greater amount than they would if an individual pump was the only source for pressure. But that's not a good way to increase flow. That's a good way to increase the pressure capability of the system. And if your in-tank pump is dying, or dead, it isn't going to work at all.

And yes, the stock LT1 fuel pressure regulator can control a system consisting of a stock in-tank pump and an added inline pump.

Why do you want to add an inline pump?

I'll move this to the "Fuel and Ignition" forum......

That's the point I was trying to get across.
