Default Help with fuel pump

04 silverado 4.8 fuel pump went out I don't really need the whole assembly just the pump so I need advice on where to get one and if I could get like a direct fit performance one

Right now the truck is tuned and stalled with 4.10s but probably have a cam and more boltons in its future

Yeah been searching I'm towing it home tomorrow so I can really see what's going on but looks like if it the pump I'll go with the walboro

Also if anyone knows just had a tune done a month ago if the pump was weak do I need to get a retune for the new pump or doesn't it matter

So long as youre regulator is good shouldnt be a problem.... Have you tried the tried and true method of beating on the fuel tank while someone is cranking it?? Could save you a tow bill....
