I'd go with the Granatelli Motorsports (repackaged Walbro). I just got one from http://www.summitracing.com for $111 shipped UPS 2nd Day Air. The pump is even stamped "Walbro" and is a direct replacement for the GM pump. (pickup is offset like the stocker). Well worth the extra $20-$30 for a name brand from a well-known distributor IMHO.

here's the link http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

If you decide to go with the eBay pump, let us know how it works out.

The Granatelli kit is garbage. See this thread:

Go for the racetronix kit. Better pump, direct fit.

For a 125.00 I would go with the proven and well-liked Racetronix fuel pump.

Maybe the Granetelli kit was garbage in 2003, but they've changed the pump since then. The inlet is offset like the GM unit, therefore you can re-use the cup. I'll agree that the rubber hose could be improved upon, but it's still not a "garbage" kit. I'm not saying "Don't buy the Racetronix kit," so don't take this the wrong way. I'm just saying the Granatelli kit uses the same pump as the Racetronix kit, but the Racetronix "kit" definitely has some better features. Also, the $160 kit at Thunder Racing is only the basic kit. It doesn't come with the "hot-wire" etc.

Numbers on the Granatelli pump: Walbro F20000169 08306-1 MADE IN THE USA PAT 4500270 5421306
