Booster fuel pump

So looking to find a booster fuel pump for my 91 with the 408.
What size pump should I be looking for?
The shop that tuned my PCM said 155 gpm, or maybe liters\hr cant remember. I wrote it down when they said it but now cant find it. Looking online and seeing them rated in lbs\hr and liters\hr. Whats the conversion between the two?

Also where would be a good spot to mount it? Anyone got any tips for doing this?

Ive done it to my Audi with 6 60# injectors and 28 psi boost. I left the in-tank pump in, then added a Walbro pump to boost pressure and volume. I installed another relay to controll my boost pump. Just make sure you keep the filter between the boost pump and the engine. If you put the boost pump betweeen the filter and the engine the pump will cavitate.
Hope this helps
