Question Fuel Pump Rate

Does anyone know the normal rate (GPM) on the Fuel Pump of an 1987 Ford F250 Diesel? I was looking at the 7.3 fuel water separator (per Dave's suggestion), but i can't really find that combo easy and i seen another one that reminds me of some of the equipment we have at my plant. (I work at a Power Generation Plant),.........>.< anyways any input would be great. Dave do you remember where you got yours and how hard is it to install?

I bought a reman 7.3 turbo engine and installed it in my 86. The filter/ seperator was on the engine.

The 7.3 style water seperator screws onto the fuel filter bracket you already have.
The filter has screw threads on the bottom that you screw a piece on that has the drain **** and the water in fuel sensor sensor in it. That bottom piece is all you need to buy to change it over plus you would need the newer style filter when you change them. I do not have the filter number down here right now.
