My thinking is, since the main purpose is to deliver fuel to the IP, why not just "gut it" so what it is aflow through and let the electric fuel pump do the delivering of the fuel to the IP.

Electric pumps are far less reliable than the original lift pump. Also with electrical failure. Using an electric pump will not allow the car to run after the battery runs down.
The lift pump existing is an excellent well though out very reliable design and easy to recondition to get it back to what it should be if it is deficient. Some cars using wvo seem to require a booster pump at the tank end of the system. If you are regularily using wvo does add some varience to the issue by the way.
