Question is why did the fuse blow?

Jeff,

I agree and don’t have that answer. Didn’t get a chance to mess with it cause it’s too late but hopefully I will tomorrow. Still wouldn’t surprise me if the pump is bad.

I pulled the second pumps fuse and started this thing the other day with no issue. Rolled it out and let it heat up to operating temp, probably ran 30 minutes or so with no issues. Is it possible that the car was low on fuel (it was on reserve) and it went dry and popped the fuse? Kind of afraid to drive it yet..

Denso #951-5016 (exact fit verified)

I would recommend the Denso unit, Amazon & WalMart @ $57.04. Does not come with new filter socks

Is there a current update on fuel pump availability? I intent to stock a pair but found out that the Denso, Bosch and Carter units seem to be no longer available. I'm looking for units that can fuel a standard performance setup and ideally need no modifications to wiring harness and/or mounting...
What about the GM OEM #25163473? They are listed on ebay but of course with a hefty price tag...
To me two things are key: reliability and ease of installation. So, what would you recommend as of today?

I have the Performance Electric P240KC purchased from RockAuto. Direct fit with no issues and reasonable price. You need to get 2 pieces and it comes with the sock cloth strainers. Just be careful with the hose clamps and might want to replace stock plastic clamps with stainless hose clamps. My stock clamp came off in the past so I replaced all with SS.

RockAuto.com has a good selection including Delphi. Performance Electric has worked well for me and others.

Thanks. I heard a lot of complaints about Delphi (but not own experience with them) but if the Performance Electric units do the job well I'll go for a pair fo these.
