fuel pump

I foolishly waited until the week before the Mt. Ephraim Dodge "All MoPar Show" to fire Faulkner up. He's running great, but - just as at the Videon show last fall - he's leaking from the fuel pump, only worse now. I've got to replace it.
Claude and Keith at A to Z Fuel Pumps aren't answering their phone today, although (I think) I left a message. Autozone doesn't have one - two different NAPA counters have given me two different part numbers, an N68716 that doesn't look anything like my current fuel pump, and an AFP 711 that kinda looks right - but apparently isn't orderable online.
Anyone have advice about where I can get a fuel pump in a hurry?

AutoZone gives detailed information on the AirTex 711 - it's the right part, and unlike NAPA, I can order online. Two day shipping; (*sigh*) guess I'll be in the garage one night this week.

My Book tells me you need P/N 1843 287
Too bad you can't find it in stock in your area stores.
Sounds like you have found a source.

Dan, might as well buy a second back up pump for the storage in the trunk. Just in case....

The AirTex from AutoZone is installed - and Faulkner is back to running great. Went for a spin, came back just before the heavens opened. I don't know if they had the car show at Mt. Ephraim Dodge or not - but I won't be able to make it if they went to next week's rain date, it's Em's graduation party.

Dan; The MoPar Performance or Direct Connection high volume fuel pumps work great, A engine P4007040 and B engine P4007039.
These look exactly like the originals.
