Default Fuel pump

Hi,
Looking to replace the electric fuel pump in my 82 Vette with improved 85 Delco model. Rock Auto. com seems to have the best price. Anyone use them? any recommendation?
Thanks,
Tom

I have used them a couple of times. They got the parts out quickly and with reasonable shipping costs. I would use them again.

Definately use the Delco brand pump. I first used an aftermarket brand and it died 8 months later. Replaced it with a Delco one and it has been trouble free for the last 3 years. I believe I gave around 90 dollars for it at the time from a local auto parts store. Dont forget to get a new sock also.

I used Rock Auto and I don't know if they have a warehouse nearby or they drop shipped the item from somewhere local but I ordered the item on a Monday and it was at my place on Tuesday with regular shipping. I don't know how they got it there so fast, but I like it!
