7.4L TBI fuel pump options

I replaced the fuel pumps in my dually earlier this spring w/some new AC Delco units as a pro-active maintenance service since it was easier to access them while the bed was off.

I went to shuffle things around in the shop yesterday & the truck wouldn't start. I ran down the possibilities & a <6mo old fuel pump is already dead. If one dies, the other is a risk as well.

I swapped in the original pump for now but need to search for a better alternative. Who makes a high quality, made is the USA drop in fuel pump for squares w/TBI (very mild BBC)?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Bumping this back up....

My old pump that got swapped back in isn't priming. Any alternative suggestions? Looking to keep thing s relatively OE as far as function & plumbing. I just want better quality so I can do the job once vs over & over.
