I wonder if you can change out the filter and regulator once you have the fuel/pump basket out, anyone know?

Yes, I believe that it's all integrated, not sure if it's available as an assembly or what...PM TorqueWrench, I bet he'd know for sure...

Corey, if you're going with a stock style pump, i'd make sure it is actually OEM and not OEM quality/replacement.

yea corey get an OEM pump. I'm pretty sure that one you posted is where i bought mine from and it was junk from the beginning. it would cut out under WOT. then i put in a OEM pump with like 60k miles and it works great..
