just wondering if you could just put two of those cummins pumps on. One in the stock location and one by the tank?? Is this a good idea or not????

You can do it. Vulcan says you could get upwards of 30 psi. They recommend a relay that is activated by oil pressure so you start the truck on one pump and run off both.
High initial fuel pressure can create a hard start problem.
I have a friend that runs the stock LP and a Holley Blue pump with no problems.
I may eventually add a second campaign pump in the stock location for more psi if I need it.

Honestly, I wouldn't waste my time with a stock pump. You can get a Walbro for $100 and a few dollars extra would provide you with the parts for a bypass. The 1/2" or 3/8" lines are a nice touch, but, if you were on a budget, you'd be able to get by without them. Definitely an option worth looking into!

I ended up just bolting on a Holley Blue on my frame rail, after a new lift pump and a new injection pump (under warranty) the piece of mind is priceless! Especially now that the truck went out of warranty 4 days ago!

Is there an online source for the 'campaign pump'? Or a place where I can get one?

Local Cummins dealer is the easiest (if there is one near you).

I could have sworn Geno's Garage was selling them a while back, I remember thinking how odd that was.

Other than that I have never heard of them being sold on-line.
