fuel tank question.

I am thinking of running a s10 blazer tank at the very back of the frame and am wondering will the stock fuel pump on my 60 235 be able to pump gas from the top of the tank and all that extra distance?

Thanks,
Chris

Re: fuel tank question.

Once there is fuel in the lines it acts like a siphon, little pressure required to move the liquid.

That's kind of what I figured I just wasn't totally sure because the stock tank was so close and gravity feed
