You can use an external electric pump, or the mechanical pump on the engine. You are absolutely correct about the factory fuel pump. It will pump so much pressure, you'll have fuel squirting out of every orifice in the carb. You will have to take the fuel tank out of the car, and remove the factory fuel pump. There are pick up tube assemblies that will fit into the stock location without a fuel pump on them.

I wouldn't waste your money on the cell. The stock gas tank is 15+ gallons, and works fine. I would just get the drop in pickups, and use the stock tank. It will save you money, and give you double the fuel capacity.
