I would love to stay mechanical.....But a replacement pump would need the same physical dimensions and the same high fuel flow rate (130GPH/9PSI) as the Mr. Gasket 7732....

You are welcome, I went through mechanical fuel pump hell with my jetboat, the cam was so aggressive that it was causing the fuel pump rocker pins to fail (harmonics from the flat tappit cam) I have a box of busted ones, all brands I need to toss out. That's what sent me in search of a good electric system.

The clay smith may need a regulator to cut it down to 7psi so beware.

BTW, the reason I mentioned the Black pump is because you lose significant gph on electric pumps when you pump through a regulator, that is why I like the return style regulator. The electric pump can run at rated output when the demand is there and when it's not it bypasses back to the tank.

Basically the same setup a lot of fuel injection systems have adopted.

This is not such an issue with mechanical pumps though still somewhat true.
