Smile Flathead fuel pump

Have installed a Mustang fuel tank between the frame rails and am ready to get a rotary fuel pump, regulater and pickup/gauge mechanism. Has anybody sorted all this out and is willing to help e with this? I have converted to 12v and am using the stock carburetor. Stock gauges also.
Thanks for any help you may give.

I used an Airtex/Auto Zone #E8016S (Airtex E8016S - Electric Fuel Pump Assembly | O'Reilly Auto Parts), which is not a rotary. Carter also makes a decent pump (

) and I don't think it is rotary either. Both are rated to 4 - 4.5 psi output for carb'd vehicles.

Holley 94's like low pressure (2.0 - 2.5 max) and I don't know of any pumps that are that low. Use a quality regulator like the Holley 12-804 (
