You can pick up a Walbro 190 or 255 lph unit for about $100. Either one should be adequate for unless you're making a ton of horsepower. The install is fairly straitforward. The toughest part is goin to be dropping the fuel tank (get a buddy). Other than that you'll just have to disconnect a few fuel lines and yank the pump out and put the new one in.

Make sure you siphon out the tank until its empty as much as you can(1gal=6lbs).
The tank drops with just 4 bolts on the tank straps.
Use a floor jack under the tank to lower it if you do it alone and there is still gas.
The pump sits in a valley in the tank so make sure you look inside to see what you are dealing with before you jam the pump in there.
Be careful taking and installing the pump so the sock does not fall off, it will take some gentle manuvering.
It looks weird when you connect the new power lines to the pump with the wires exposed but it is fine.
You will need a set of these to pull the lines off 5/8 size.
Good luck it should take you no more than 2 hours as a novice, but take your time.

Nobody told me about that valley when I learned to do mine and I was cursing up a storm wondering why it would not fit back in.
