Injected cars do run an internal fuel swirl pot to help prevent fuel starvation, so yes ideally you'll need a fuel tank from an injection vehicle (easiest option, imo).

Of course.
You'd need 2 fuel pumps,
a low capacity (say, a facet Red top) to supply the swirl pot. And then a proper one to feed the engine.
The engine would return to the swirl pot, and the swirl pot would return to the tank.

Buy an XR3i tank. Cheap as chips from one of these pattern places.
Cheaper than a facet fuel pump, and sure as shit cheaper than a swirl pot.
