You can get Denso pumps at Covin auto parts. I'm not sure what the number is for the Supra pump. I do know you need to do a little fabricating and buy or make a wire harness.  Also need a pump strainer/filter. The GN type won't fit. Someone did a full writeup and install on Turbobuick and Turbobuicks a few years ago. Find it and get all the pn #'s and info you need.

Some of these pumps can overwhelm the stock return line at idle...don't be surprised if you have to replace it.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Yep. seen it many times. Even if reusing the stock feed as a new return. After 25 years of shit buildup inside stock lines need to be replaced.
AN-8 should be used as a return for most use

i have a 5/16 return line.
with a (i think) accufab Fuel pressure regulator.
i was considering ordering the Fuel pump from Racetronix with all the necessary junk to install it.
i decided on the Denso because a well known and respected old Buick guy recommended it.
come to think of it he posted on this thread. HMMMM??????
talk to me guys this one of the last few pieces of my puzzle.

Dump the 5/16 line, only future problems. Racetronix is fine. Just make sure its a Denso pump and not a replacement as Grumpy mentioned earlier.

1-Dump the 5/16 line, only future problems. 2-Racetronix is fine. Just make sure its a Denso pump and not a replacement as Grumpy mentioned earlier. 
1-You mean run a new return line???  :icon_evil:
2-Thats why i am looking for reputable source- to avoid ending up with a knock-off.

If the Denso requires a larger return line id rather NOT go that route.
What other should i consider that will supply enough fuel but NOT need a new return line??
ALSO
If i do decide to go with a larger return line what size should it be? 1/2 or 5/8 or ??

Your 5/16 line is 44 years old correct?  Get rid of it....

A 255lph pump would be a stock replacement. I would use a 3/8 return. For the above pumps that are over 275lph I would use AN-8 line which is close to 1/2inch
