I have a small electric Carter that doesn't require a regulator. It's cheap, but I am only on the street and it seems to work fine on my Quick fuel 750 AN. I am pushing around 420hp at the motor. I can hear it but it's not too loud. I haven't heard much good about the Holley pumps. It seems many forum members have had troubles with those. Another option which costs a little more, but might be really nice for the street is the Edelbrock "Quiet-Flo". I have heard some really like these pumps.

If you are just on the street, I wouldn't think you need a pump that puts out more than 6.5 psi and requires a regulator, but I could be wrong. If I recall correctly your Quick Fuel carb will be set from the factory to handle around 6.5 psi.

The answer is the Aromotive pump referenced by r McCall, I had multiple failures using the Holley pumps, since installing the a fore mention pump 4 years ago no problems. Along with the great pump make sure you run a filter before and after the pump and clean the forward filter every few months, a clogged forward filter can kill your suction and overburden the pump. 500 + h.p. 71/2 psi, 750 double pumper,-6 lines.

I have seen people run this mechanical pump and swear by them.

I agree but its tight with the Oil Filter so a tiny bit has to be grinded off the body of the Pump to assure it does not rub a hole in the Filter in the long run. At least on my Engine it was like that.

I like mechanical pumps, they are safer than electric pumps. The RobbMc pump is a groovy pump, sold by groovy people. I agree there is rubbing, but relieving the pump body for clearance is not a big deal.

You have a point their George, if you are going to run a electric pump you should install a oil pressure shut off circuit to the pump in case your in a rear end collision or you roll over. If you are really concerned you can also install a roll over switch as well, I have both. Without these power cut-offs, if the key is on you fuel pump will continue to pump fuel.

Don't mean to hijack but I have a new Tsunami aeromotive pump for sale if anyone is interested. I'll post in for sale forum
