Gas tank > squeeze bulb (if applicable) > electric pump > pulse pump > carbs.
It helps if the electric pump is at the lowest point so it always stays primed. If you can have the fuel tank to line fitting at the bottom of the tank, rather than having to draw it up through the top of the tank, you eliminate a potential problem (guess how I know this?) but obviously that requires that all fittings and connections will not leak.
Ideally you draw fuel from either the lowest point of the tank and then through a gascolator to separate out the water, and then to the electric pump, and then to the pulse pump.
In my case, the fuel pickup is 2.5" above the lowest point of the fuel tank (it is quite narrow at that point) with the lowest point having a separate outlet to the water drain valve.
So I am running pickup > Facet pump > pulse pump > carbs.
