Look for the belt drive pump that came with gen 5 motors, these can easily be upgraded with a Carter M61045 mechanical pump from summit. You just switch out the valve body of the carter pump on to the mercruiser pump lever assy. Requires #10 inlet size hose and #8 outlet I believe. No regulator.

Did this on my buddies 560hp BBC, has been reliable for 3 years.

Just to be sure, did you bolt the lover fuel pump house from the Carter to the upper fuel pump house from Mercruiser pump. And that way you have a USCG marine fuel pump.? :rolleyes:
