If I'm going to be doing this very un-fun looking task, I might as well put a higher volume pump in, so what are you guys running and how reliable have they been? Where did you find the best prices on them?

Of course, I'm talking TPI cars only (sorry TBI guys)

Yup same pump and same loudness at times. I've only had it for about 3 months now. I picked mine up at www.JDSPerformance.com They always seem to be the cheapest.

I'm running a SX inline with a SX inline fuel Filter. The pump volume is rated at 85gpg @45psi. This is a very quality cunstructed pump and a lot larger than that little tiney thing GM puts in the tank.
