I have a 90 vert and replaced my fuel pump a year ago with a stock equivalent Bosch #61033 fuel pump/w strainer. It was $172. You'll want to replace the tank access cover gasket too which is ~$5-6.00(?).

Are you looking for a stock replacement or an aftermarket? An FD pump wouldn't be too bad of an upgrade, they're usually around $50 + shipping in the for sale section.

I am just looking for the actuall fuel pump, Is the FD stock fuel pump that much of a upgrade? or is it just worth to go for a aftermarket one? Thanks

Do you own a turbo or a non-turbo?
If it's a non-turbo, replace it with an equivalent stock one.
Used units are plentiful and cheap.
There is no need to upgrade a non-turbo fuel pump; it'll only eat more gas and lose power.
