Default which electric fuel pump?

what electric fuel pump would you guys recommend for a 700 HP fuel injected small block? Aeromotive has several listed but I was not sure about how much noise they make. I really don't want to listen to a fuel pump whine. I have a mechanical pump now but issues may force me to change.
Thanks

Moving away from the Race Pump?

Who made the fuel injection kit on your car? Wouldn't they offer an appropriate pump for their own system?

The racepump is continuing to have problems Matt. I don't really have a efi "kit". I used a holley stealth ram intake that has been opened up throughout the runners and port matched to a felpro 1206 gasket. It also has all dividers knife edged. I have a NOS dual 58mm throttle body with a 150shot orfice, 58lb injectors, and an Accel gen7 computer. I am nocking at the 700hp door with the NOS so I am sure that limits my options. And as I said, I don't want to listen to a noisy pump.
Ideas??????????????

Aeromotive also sells a speed controller. The pump runs slower at low engine rpms. It runs at full speed above 3000 rpm. It's pricey. About $200.00. I have the controller and the Street and Strip "T" shaped fuel pump. I can't hear it when the engine is running. I have the factory 69 sidepipe mufflers.
