The A/C Delco Fuel Pump Catalog in the rear section, has the specs for all the pumps in the catalog. Might call around to your local parts houses and see who has a catalog. With so much on line and inhouse part nos catalogs are getting rarer, and rarer.

In my opinion gambling with the fuel system is not a good way start up a new motor.

It very well could support the motor, but is the pump used it could be tired.

New high volume high PSI pumps are in the 100$ range.

Most folks with healthy motor combos stick a Walbro in the tank: check this link, this is where I bought my Walbro.
