Help stranded! Electric fuel pump?? 1978 Argosy MOTORHOME

Can anyone tell me what type of electric fuel pump I need on my 1975 Argosy motorhome??
P30 chasis, Chevy 454 engine.

I have 15 minutes until part store closes to get the part and I am broken down.

They say they need the work pressure and how many gallons per hour!
Obviously this is an add on.

Options r 9-11 or 2-3.5 or 1.5-4 or 4-7 or 4.5
Gallons per hr options r 32/15/9

Please help. Thank u soo much.

You need a Carter P4070 electric pump. This one works in conjunction with the mechanical pump on the front of the engine.

Good luck!

One reason those pumps go bad is that rust from the tank gets into the pump and they stop cold. If you do not have a good & fresh inline filter before the pump, you should put one in.
