Default Inline fuel pump recommendation

I have a bad fuel pump and need a replacement for my carbed LQ9. Due to space limitations i need an inline pump. I have a fuel press regulator but it's a returnless style, so i need to keep the pump pressure low.
All pumps i can find are high pressure, high price tag or not inline pumps.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Something like this is fine but overkill for my application.

Why won't a walbro 255 work? No question it will feed a carb with a return style regulator, many have done so. I don't see why it won't work with a dead head unit.

If nothing else try a TBI in line pump. Like this one.

This one says carb or EFI

this one says it works down to 5 psi

I run a factory TBI in tank pump with a return fuel regulator.

Thanks guys! In tank pumps will not work for my application. It may be an option to convert to in tank pump.
This one http://www.ebay.com/itm/AUTHENTIC-Wa...-/161494536450 looks nice. Thanks for the link! 15 bucks shipping is also nice.
