Carter is a well known brand. I'm sure you'll be fine.

It's just a matter of personal preference. Sure, certain name brands are better than others, but realistically speaking a cheapo pump can last just as long as a name brand if it's properly cared for. By that I mean not constantly running the tank down to empty before filling up all the time- electric in tank pumps rely on fuel to keep their temperature regulated- constantly draining the tank will cause the pump to overheat and kill it quick.

Carter makes fuel pumps for a bunch of OEMs also. They made the OEM fuel pump on the older 7.3 powerstrokes.
