The Ford Barn - View Single Post - V8 fuel pump as an air pump?

Same kind of sources: "old racers" have told me the same thing. It makes sense since the pump isn't working under the same handicap that Ford designed; namely having to pull/lift the fuel via suction. Hand pump enough pressure into the tank to get you going and let the fuel pump maintain. After all it doesn't take too much pressure to satisfy a pair of 94s.
