No options that would be cost effective, or practical.
The system can work. Cooling the pump with the fuel supply is a good plan. Pushing rather than pulling is best. It is a good plan.

Why don't you like the factory pump setup? It's a pretty good system and should last a long time if properly maintained. A shot of MMO in each tankful of gas will keep the whole fuel system clean and lubed up which does extend the life of the pump and the rest of the system. If you seriously want an inline pump, I highly recommend Aeromotive fuel pumps. They are a bit pricey, but they are far superior to the factory pump and will last longer. You could still use the factory tank, or upgrade to a fuel cell.
