Try searching about HV pumps, then decide if you really want one. An SV pump with a higher pressure spring is suitable for most all applications.

+1. GM pump with white spring works great.

I am using the Canton 242T, GM white spring, Melling Select HV 10552. Not a good setup for a stockish application though.

I'd recommend either the MV55 (if on a mild setup) or Melling Select SV 10554 (once again, one for sale, PM if interested).
