[urq] Better fuel pump needed

Turns out one of the problems Ive had with my Megasuirt EFI installation and tuning has
been a crappy fuel pump. It limits flow and the engine was running crappy at 5k and now
is cutting out at lower RPM and even idle too buzzing is very load. Now this is the
third or fourth pump Ive installed in this car. The first pump was totally seized from
setting when I got the car about 5 years ago. I purged the lines and flushed the tank
and installed a pre-filter. I installed an 87.5 Coupe GT/Model 90 pump higher flow
and pressure. The first one was defective out of the box. The second one is now acting
up. Tank was just flushed and I routinely replace the pre-filters even though they look
clean, so I dont think any garbage is getting into the pump.
So I am looking for recommendations for the best pump to use since I no longer have CIS.
I would be nice to have the output fitting mate with the stock fitting, but mainly I
want a reliable high output and pressure pump. The inlet is already using a larger
hose. Im tired of doing jobs 2 and 3 times, so this time I wont try to skimp on cost,
although the ones Ive been putting in a Bosch Replacements.
Recommendations?
