They are just better for the average vehicle. Even a cheap parts store replacement will keep up with a decent small block easy enough. Plus you don't have the other associated problems as with a electric one. Plus cheap, and electric pump don't work to well together.

Summit even has 2 different mechanical pumps that can run fuel injection 1 for TBI set-ups, and 1 for high pressure set-ups.. Yes it is like $250, but my guess is that it would be quite reliable, and clean looking.
