Well as long as we are being honest about fuel pumps:

Though I use a solid-state SU on my Healey (backed up by an inline FACET
cube) on both of my Weber-equipped race cars I use a Carter 2040 which is
THE recommended pump for Webers and of course will work on SU's as well.
I've been using the Carters for about 15 years and have never had one break
down or fail in any way.  They're reasonably priced, easy to mount and make
no unseemly noises.

Best--Michael Oritt
