Default Recommend me a fuel pump.

Planning a bracket racer, estimated 3000lb Camaro, 'glide with brake, warmed up 6.0 with Summit stage 2 truck cam, flat top forged pistons, Holley 750 vacuum secondary carb, estimated 450hp. Mostly 1/8 mile, plan to stay under 6500 rpm.
Another forum advised a Holley black, good enough? Regulator needed?
Other options?
Thank you.

A Holley Blue fuel pump and regulator, (part # 12-803) will be more than adequate for 450 hp. If you plan on using e85 or plan maybe later on to be in the 650 or higher hp range, then you should use the Holley black pump. Most carburetors only use 5 to 6 psi of fuel pressure.
