That Walbros used to be all the rage.... I know A TON of people who have them, myself included. Hope I dont have any problems like some of you guys have. So far ive been 100% satisfied with it.

Airtex used to be pretty good stuff, and price was decent. I dont know if things have changed on quality, hopefully not. I need a pump real soon here myself.

Re: Walbro 255 alternative

I question if that pump is really rated at 250lph. Its a TTA replacement pump, and that pump from the factory (GM) is rated nowhere near that.
