Fuel pump size
I have a 460 with a bad fuel pump. It also has an aftermarket holly carb. The pump that’s on it now is not stock, do I need a bigger pump for the holly carb or would the factory pump work fine?

Factory pump will work.
Holley carbs were factory on some motors.
Unless you are racing a highly built up motor that is running at WOT for miles would you need a higher out put pump.

the mechanical is plenty enough pump for a stock 460.

With the advise from someone on here I ordered a Holley: 110 GPH MECHANICAL FUEL PUMP
PART # 12-460-11
This part does not need a fuel regulator for the 460
I ordered these adapters https://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/15980/10002/-1
It comes in a pair of two and I used them both. Runs great now
