Stock like behavior from OEM fuel tank with fuel pump upgrades
Ok guys, I've read enough forums to make my head spin on the subject. I'm looking at doing a fuel pump swap that will allow me to retain stock like characteristics, I.e driving your truck to the gas light comes on, no hesitation from wot under a half or 1/4 tank. Doesn't anyone have any suggestions to this?
Aside from doing a dedicated fuel cell, I'm trying to get the most out of the factory fuel tank. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Use one those mega huge holley hydramats for after market fuel pumps. Put the pump in the stock bucket to keep all that stuff and the low fuel light.
Those socks hold a ton of fuel. Bummer is that they cost a ton of money because it's from Holley.
Or just not let the tank get down below 1/4th and be flooring it everywhere.

Haven't decided ion pump yet. The reason for this is because let's say, you find yourself in an emergency condition and need to punch it wot, to move out of the way of a semi, and your truck hesitates.... See where I'm going? It's not a what if question, because I've been in the situation before, with my low fuel light on and had to punch it. Seeing as to.how the vehicle was stock, I didn't have an issue doing this. I want to be able to use all of the fuel in the tank if need be
FFDP, I'm not sure I follow?
Atomic- that's easier said than done.

I have a single 450LPH pump that maintains the stock Venturi operation. My fuel bucket is not cut at all. I am in the process of adding another 450 but this will not effect how the system operates at low levels. My return line attaches to the oem return port in bucket so it functions like normal.
