Default L79 accelerator pump question

My 66 with the 327/350 falls on its face when throttle pushed quickly. It runs strong if fuel fed slowly or even moderately but hesitates if pedal mashed suddenly. Sounds like classic accelerator pump issues. I have the correct Holley, #3367A so what accelerator pump number do I want? Can I get this at my FLAPS?

This is from the Holley web site. I have a L79 in my car and use this 30 cc pump. Whatever you use, make sure it is compatible with alcohol based fuel. If you don't you will be getting your car towed as I know from experience.

Carburetor Diaphragm Diaphragms 30cc GFLT w/o Screws GFLT Diaphragms Are Compatible For Use w/All Alcohol Base Fuels
