If you go to www.partsamerica.com(the advance site) and plug in your truck, you can see the difference in the pumps. I think the difference is the way the plumbing hooks up to the back of the pump.

Same here, I have pretty much everything to do with the smog mess for a 351 if you need anything.

On trucks with a GVW of #8500 or more, no catalyctic converter is required, I guess they compensated by throwing on an extra pump.

I would go to the junkyard and see if you can find a truck like yours to look at, at see which pump it has. Does the store have them in stock, or is it a special order item. If it's in stock, can't you just take it out to your truck and compare real quick?
