"Universal" fuel pump?

[Mark R]

Yes, I have replaced a Bosch pump with a high volume "racing" unit.  But in
a performance application.  In other words, larger HP required the maximum
volume that the stock pump could produce.  With no overhead, this wasn't
acceptable.

For $100.00 I certainly wouldn't bother.  Plug and play is easy and you
don't have to do any engineering.
