How many using this setup and are you happy with it?

I am using it. It preforms well but I can hear the pump change it's "tune" when switched to WMO. I need to get another one and turn my fuel tank selector switch to a fuel PUMP selector switch so when the WMO kills the Holley Red I can still get around.

My Holley Red seems to be doing alright so far, but like International's it sings in a lower key on homebrew. It keeps up with demand fine, but I'm running a non-stock filter setup...

Any other pumps you guys know of that works better than this one? I'm sure the factory mechanical lift pump would be fine? however I reallly wanna go electric for reasons of my own. Thanks

I picked up a pair of procomps. They work when its warm, but not much more than that. I think they are the starting problems I was having prior to losing my oil pressure.

My holley red works fine with a 50/50 mix but pure wmo and the pump strugles and will not keep up with fuel demand when heavy on the go pedal. Also when it gets below 40 degrees I try to slim down on the wmo too. Pump does not like it to well when it gets colder.
