Well they are all the same pump just have different placement of inlets. One is center inlet, one is offset inlet and the other one is offset but on the same side as the outlet i guess. Just depends on how you need it. I could be wrong but this is what i am understanding from the description.
EDIT: by same side i mean on opposite ends obviously. The inlet is at the bottom but the outlet will be at the top.

A quality sort in your warehouse? Who actually makes this pump?

I may have missed it, but what is the physical size of these pumps? Is it very similar to the 255 where 2 of them would fit together in the 2002 C5 Corvette fuel tank?

Hey guys. Just wanted to clear the air here. Our 340 fuel pumps, like all of these style pumps, are manufactured off shore. The difference is ours are manufactured to our specifications using our material recommendations and tolerences to achieve the desired flow at pressure. And all are manufactured by our trusted partner, not just some random plant. It is also important for me to point out, that this is the ONLY Aeromotive Fuel Pump to be manufactured off shore. All of our other components are designed, manufactured, built and tested right here in the USA. In addition, the 340 pumps are individually tested for flow at pressure before we assemble the kits, box and ship them.

465 lbs/hr / .5 NA BSFC = 930 Crank Shaft HP
Remember this pump flow and not a system (i.e. lines and rails). In order to get the most out of this pump it would require fuel system upgrades (lines, rails, pump wiring and reg).

None of these pumps will be a drop in for the C5 or C6. Although a quick google search might find you some results of people that have modified the bucket to work with the GSS series. Hope this helps.

Flow at 60psi is 465 lbs./hr @ 13.5 V (Using 6.2 lbs per gallon)

It's the same size as popular 255's out there (GSS series)
This is the same design as the popular GSS series as I listed at the top of page 6. To get this into your F-body, check the "sticky" at the top of the fueling section. Here's the link if you need it.

Have you guys had anyone install the 340 in a 2004 to 2006 GTO? I already have a Lingenfelter/ Walboro 255 installed and I just ordered the correct 340 pump 11140 center inlet just like the walboro in the lingenfelter kit. The Lingenfelter uses a couple of aluminum bushing to make the pump fit correctly as well as some light bucket modification for these cars. Will I be able to swap the aluminum bushing to the new pump and just drop this sucker in? Also I am currently using a a Boost a pump to maintain 12.5 volts, should I ditch the BAP and run the alternator wire as listed in Aeromotives instructions?
