Try a SEARCH. I believe it's been attempted, but am not sure of how successful those attempts have been. Another method is to use the in-tank pump and add a 3-line regulator (with return) to hold fuel presure to 5 PSI or less.

If you want to use the pump in the block it is best to remove the pump in the tank. The block pump cannot suffiently pull gas through the in tank pump.
