Why are you planning to replace an electrical inline pump with a mechanical pump? I always preferred going the other way myself. mechanical pumps are a pain in the ass, especially on a nice hot motor. I used to have vapor lock issues in the VW because the fuel would actually boil in the pump.

Properly plumbed, there are no issues with vapor lock on a real motor. Mechanical pumps are simpler and more reliable in the long run. $.02

Like I said, this was a VW, an air cooled engine that runs head temps over 300 degrees and oil temps upwards of 200 degrees under normal circumstances. Engine compartment temps are disgustingly high on them, and the stock fuel line runs right over the cylinder head shroud. Not exactly ideal conditions. I still like the idea of an oil pressure cutoff and the reduced amount of cranking for an electrical pump. All personal preference.
