Joe --
Regardless of the pump you pick, you'll also need to
include an inertial switch to kill power to the fuel
pump in the event of an accident. The PI TR6's had
this. There are a variety of kill switch designs out
there, belive I saw one on the rack at Pep Boys a
while back.
This is serious stuff -- I lost a friend to fire in an
otherwise survivable experimental aircraft accident
because of a fuel pump that they couldn't shut off.
