Default Suggestions for new intank fuel pump?????

Hey guys I have a 91 fullsize blazer that I have a 6.0 swapped in for a while and was wanting to know what you guys would suggest for swapping in an intank fuel pump like a walbro or something. I would like it to drop right in to the stock tank and bolt up to the stock sender assembly. I have a 98 vortec pump that puts out roughly 50 psi just to get it running and driveable, but will soon be moding and dont want any problems to pop up because of running too lean. It is the stock fuel tank, and the blazer came with the tbi injection. Any clues on what pump to use and where I can pick one up? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Remington

In my LS1/ RX7 conversion got a stock '98 pump w/ FPR off ebay for $40.00 and clampe it to the stock Mazda pump assy. Works like a champ and you cant beat the price.

My Walbro only lasted 3000 miles for some reason, I have a GM stock pump in it right now. I really didn't need the Walbro anyway....I just "cruise" all the time. The stock pump is definitely quieter.
