Thanks, I pulled the old pump out and replaced the rubber lines with steel. Got it working with no load, but started sucking air with a load. It's wanting more fuel than an inline pump can handle, just going to get a good pump and put it back in the tank.
Pretty sure I still have an NOS pump. Send me a pm if interested

That's probably the best way to go.

You need to double check the lines between the tank and the booster pump on the engine. Even though the inline pump you added isn't supplying enough fuel, it should not be drawing air in anywhere. It sounds like you have a leak somewhere.
