Dave,

Nice car!  I'm jealous!

On the fuel pump question, you could replace it with an inline Walbro
pump.  (Former) lister Scott Williams sells them here:

<http://usrallyteam.com/pumps.html>

A 255LPH pump would work fine for your application, with enough
headroom for future power increases.  Scott also has any adapters you
might need to hook it up, but it'll probably fit right in since a
Aeromotive pump was already installed...

He also has an Aeromotive pump listed, but it's rated at 500lph, which
is a bit overkill for your application!

HTH,

Later,

Mark.
