BMW fuel pump for SBC TPI engine?

After refurbing my 240Z gas tank, I dug into properly wiring and mounting the ghetto set-up of the external fuel pump and filter. I was reasonably certain that a short in the pump power line was responsible for killing the original Camero ECU, and verified that today. The THREE individual power leads attached to the positive pole of the pump had arced to the fuel banjo fitting adjacent to them. :twak: Any idea why someone would run a line from the pump to a momentary switch in the cabin? The same person wrapped the banjo bolt with one ring of electrical tape, in an apparent attempt to prevent the short in that location. :beatdeadh Moving on....

 

Since I am not trying to completely correct all the problems this car came with (pulling drive train out this winter for a different swap) I just want to find a cheap pump to replace this dead one. The best deal I found so far is this one on Ebay:

Would any of the BWM people here know whether or not this is appropriate to TPI injection? (need approximately 25gph and 50psi)

Or is anyone aware of a similar pump that would work on the cheap?
