walboro pump help

time for a new fuel pump! I just wanna make sure of some things.

Firstly, who/where has the best deals that you know of? I see them on Auto Performance engineering: apeusa.com. The "kit" is $108 for the 255 hi-pressure GM pump. Is that a good deal? Are these guys ok or what? And lastly, is this the right pump for my set-up! I am really REALLY lean up top. My 02's are in the 50's!!! yes i said 50mV range. They should be in the 850's!!! I am experienced with tuning, etc...the pump is just shot.

Anyway, any help is appreciated
*edit: also what else am i going to need? Any extra fuel line or anything...calmps? I know i will need a pick up filter....anything else? The "kit" comes with install stuff like the filter. Maybe i should stick with it just in case.

The APE kit has everything you need, and he ships fast. I used my credit card and had the pump in 2 days. I added two extra hose clamps, so both ends of the in-tank line are double clamped.

I also went with the 255 high-pressure pump for two reasons:

1) draws fewer amps at same pressure than the 255 std-pressure one

2) when I do the LS1 swap, the pump's already up to the job

The kit is a straight plug 'n play setup, no hacking required. Highly recommended.
