Everyone seems to go through phases, the walbro was the best thing since sliced bread a few years ago, now everyone seems to be using the hrc pump, same as everything though I guess.

contact www.advancedautomotives.com for prices on both pumps, Nick will sort you out

thanks for the offer, but i'd feel better buying new.
How long have HRC been around? Have their pumps been tried and tested long term?

I've just fitted my HRC 290lph pump this evening. The newage pump does come with a wiring loom in the kit but i did not need it. I just had to do a pump swap and that was it. I understand that the classic pumps you have to cut the wiring.
