Fueling the 396 and N2O

I have to plumb for a NOS plate system. I'm trying to figure out what my best option is to keep my car alive with the juice. Right now I have a Holley Blue fuel pump and regulator feeding from the stock tank with a 3/8" pickup in the tank and 1/2" line from the pump to the regulator at the carb. I don't think It'll be able to feed my 396 and a 150 shot of N2O. Here are the options I've been kicking around.

1.One of the shows on Spike TV suggested putting a second fuel cell with it's own fuel pump and regulator in the front of the car as a dedicated fuel system for the N2O.
2. Put my Summit Fuel Cell in the trunk, order another Holley Blue fuel pump and regulator, and plumb that in to feed the N2O system and the motor. The fuel cell has all 1/2" fitting. Can I tee off of that to feed both systems?
3. ???

It's not a dedicated N2O car. I just want to play with fire.

Ok,
I looked over my fuel cell again and it does have two 1/2" feeds comming out of it, an inlet on top, and a roll over valve on top. My fuel pump is rated at 110gph.

It sounds like it'll be best/easiest if I just put in my fuel cell, another fuel pump, regulator, and filter. Then run the line to the N2O solenoid. One fuel cell and two fuel systems.

I'm racing a guy from work. He has an '06 Mitsubishi EVO MR. I don't want him to ever want to challenge my Chevelle again.
