  Mike, Bob's pump sounds like the pump I have in my '65 Mustang.  Its
an Airtex E2000.  I called Airtex when I was looking for a pump for 
my EFI conversion and they suggested this one.  Its for mid '80's Ford
cars and trucks.  The specs I was told were 35-40 GPH and 90PSI.  I just
mounted it in front of the fuel tank and its seems to pump just fine
w/o a in-tank pump.  BTW, I think this is the same pump that Windsor
Fox sells for their EFI conversions into old Mustangs.  The difference
is they charge $300.00 or so and this pump was less than $100.00.  I
think its because they actually go to Ford to buy the pump, not the
aftermarket.

  Anyway, I'd recommend this pump, mine is feeding a stock '87 5.0
in my '65 Mustang.
