Blue Holley will work fine. If you have money to burn, some people like the Aeromotive stuff.
Some will recommend running an oil pressure relay.

Thank you all who dropped knowledge.. I will be ordering a Holley blue pump. Now for another question.... should I get one with the "fume tube" or is it not a problem to get one without the tube. Don't really want any water making its way into the pump via "fume tube" but if advisable I'd be into getting it. Thanks

Do not let it get wet. Had 2 blue pumps. Both got wet. Both failed. I went mechanical and never looked back.

Oh, someone got jokes. Lol
I guess you didn't understand the word "had" to "have"? Well I don't expect much else from v-drive guys, who probably top out at the 10th grade. Lol
