    Never have done it, Regs---but it would seem that leaving the in-tank pump in the system might create a few unwanted restrictions in the fuel supply??????

    Use the tank pump with a bypass line back to the tank and a regulator. Done that, works great.
    Some fuel will move through the inoperative pump, but I would think it will not be enough for a big block.
