this thread has prompted me to go ahead and order a fuel pump!

I bought my parts from Summit Racing (summitracing.com). I ordered:
- Walbro Fule pump part no #GSS342BX
- Installation kit #400-766
- hose # TF0001275 (these are cheap and you may as well order an extra in case you crack or stretch this one)
I have considered using a submersible hose from Gates instead of the convoluted one above, but have not changed it out yet.
Thanks Joejoe!! Just ordered all these parts from summitracing. 400-766 is back-ordered. Hopefully it will arrive soon. I noticed that the part for the pump GSS342BX ends with BX which I have not seen mentioned previously, is that a different version of the GSS342 pump, which is usually mentioned on the forum. What is the difference?

yes I got the back order thing as well. It looks like they order the fuel pump, so they must not have in on the stock shelf.
They will probably think it odd that two people ordered that pump in one day

Thanks Bruce. While I was waiting for the tow truck, I was thinking about your Mt Evans fuel pump story - atleast I was not at 14000 feet  I might ping you for some pointers when the parts arrive.

It took me a couple of hours the first time I completed the job. I would say over an hour of that was figuring out how to get the 2 fuel lines separated from the inlet/outlets at the top of the housing, as well as figuring out how to get the 2-piece black plastic cover off the top (and removing the silicone goo that was on there). I had to go back and reclamp one of the internal hoses after I had completed the job, which was essentially the same disassembly, and it took me 20 minutes tops. Once you have done it once, it is probably a 30-45 minute job. The linked instructions are excellent, but the first couple of steps are fiddly and more obvious once you actually do it. Feel free to ask questions.
Aka Joejoe

It took a month or so for me to get everything from summit but it eventually arrived. I am saving this for a nice winter project.
