I use the Holley competiton pump, it's the biggest pump they make that does NOT require a regulator. They have a newer model now than the one in the picture. I didn't see any benefit to an electric pump, and really didn't think the horsepower loss was an issue.

The Holley electronically controlled fuel injection requires an electrical fuel pump. I am not sure if it is going to be in the fuel cell or a discrete component, but likely the latter.

It's a turnkey, due in the next few months.

Holley 1000 cfm throttle body. Commander 950 computer module, injectors installed directly in the intake runners by machining ports there,...it's a custom install.

Mechanical works fine for most carb installs, at least in my experience.
