Fuel pump for a Blazer tank.

Ok, I’m flip flopping again.
I’m again considering putting the gas tank under the bed.
On a factory type Blazer/Suburban tank setup, will the Factory, block mounted fuel pump be enough to supply the pressure to a carburetor setup? Or does it require an intank electric.
I know with EFI it does, so that’s why I’m askin
The engine is nothing special and I run a 4bbl carb

No issues pulling fuel from a rear mounted tank. The fuel pumps are the same as used in the cars from the same time period and all those tanks were rear mounted.
