Fuel pump for 1995 5.0?

[Finn]

Hello.

I would need to pick your brains regarding replacing of the OEM fuel pump. As the car is almost 30 years old I woul dlike to replace the fuel pump to reduce possible problems on the road as precautionary job.

Car is stock and wil remain stock so I don't need a HiPo pump but an OEM comparable will do. Rockauto seems most convenient for me as the shipping is a breeze.

If I look at the daily driver classified products the Carter P74151HP would contain everything I need at once - although it seems to be hi-vol pump.

Then there is the Delphi pump & housing assembly HP10145, which is quite affordable.

I have no idea of what Carter or Delphi quality is nowadays.

Any comments or ideas regarding stock replacement with these or something else?

Walbro would be my recommendation.

Thanks for the link.

I read somewhere that 1994-95 OEM fuel pump flow rate has been 110 lph. Is that correct?

Going with a higher rate pump has no down side and will leave room for growth down the road.

I wouldn't hesitate to use a Carter fuel pump, they sure made great mechanical pumps way back in the day.

Don't forget to get a new lock-ring, just incase. And a BRASS punch.

As others advised, if staying mostly stock/bolt-ons, I'd go to at least a 190lph pump.
