I can pull a fuel pump and sending unit from the bone-yard for about $10 to $30 + some for shipping and pulling the part (not much)

Do you have the Drive computer or not? The pump and sending units are different depending on the options you have.

the drive computer is a thing under the stereo that tells you statistics about your driving, avg speed, mpg.. etc..

I can get it with the sending unit too, i actually have one that I might be able to give you, but it has no sending unit.

The pump itself will work in either case. Only the mounting and sendin unit assemblies are diff. I have a drive computer pump in my non-drive computer car, all th econnections on th epump are the same.

when you use these walbros you just pull the pump out of the whole assembly and stick the walbro in its place right?

That's actually how it works with most aftermarket pumps, i.e. Autozone, etc. The pump itself is all you get, and reuse the stock mount/sending unit.
