Default Replace LPE/Walbro 255 with Aeromotive 340?

My fuel pump took a dump. Well most likly thats what happened. My car is a 2000 with A&A kit and lpe pump that comes with kit. Fuel pump has been in there 4 years. I would like to go with a bigger pump would the aeromotive stealth 340lph be a direct swap with the walbro? I might swap it myself in my garage.

Thanks,
Rob

You need the center feed aero pump, but then it's too short, and the siphon don't work on it. Next, it's a tad thicker than the lpe pump. Diameter wise...... You need to take a dremel and open the bucket where the pump sits, but it can be done. If you don't care for the siphon, it fits, if you do, it don't fit.....also, the positive and negative are backwards, unclip on the harness and repin.
