Default TBI to carb swap-fuel pump

I put a supercharged carbed motor in my car and only have the stock in tank pump. I know this isnt sufficient, but dont have the time here to change it out. I'd like to buy the Aeromotive A1000 pump which is inline correct? Would there be a problem using this along with the in-tank pump? I just need something to keep the car running for two months until I get back to the states.

Not a good idea to use an in line pump with an in tank pump at the same time. The pump with the least capacity will restrict the pump with the larger capacity.

if the tank pump is a fuel injection pump it will be more than enough. a fuel injection fuel pump pushes around 50 psi. you will have to put a return style regulator to get the pressure down to specs. Sick

Sure, you have 50psi, but you may not have the volume you need, especially with a supercharged engine, which needs fuel. Aren't stock fuel lines in camaros only 5/16"? You may want to uograde to 3/8
