TBI fuel pump?

I quoted this from the main "they gave it to us thread" but I separated it to a new thread (obviously).

* Use a custom made aluminum tank with an in-tank pump.
Ok, I have a question. I have a 72 Blazer with a 73+ fuel tank and I have thought about the 87-91 TBI in-tank pump. I was under the impression that the TBI systems worked at around 30 psi, not 60 psi like the LSx engine requires. Am I missing something???
