Hi there, in my experience, any electrical pump intented for a modern fuel injected engine of similar power, that can be fited into our tank, will do the job.
The pump itself is small, today pumps are not only of the bearing type (positive displacement) but also centrifugal and provide the flow and pressure required by our injectors, i´ve been runing with a generic pump the last 12000 kmts with no problems, I dont spect this pump to last as much as an original but I can replace it easily as can be found at any car spare shop for around 20USD.
Of course I had to weld some connectors and build and elastic support but that was easy with commercial connectors and some hot water hose por the support.
Best regards
