you can buy the Baker and install the diphram part onto the merc base, at least that's what I was told when I was looking, I ened up doing Dart blocks and was able to just use the pump As is..

Any bolt together style pump, you can bolt the bottom on to the merc top. I used the jegs 170gph with a Holley regulator and it has worked very well.

I've just used the bottom of this pump bolted to the top of the merc pump. Seems to work just fine.
