 Holly red is far too noisy, avoid if possible.

I'm not a huge fan of the holley red (although I do have one in the tiger, I wouldn't replace it with the same).  It's very noisy and it tends to get gummed up quite easily if left standing for long periods.  I've had to clean it up a few times.  I've generally been far happier with carter pumps.

FWIW, there are definite fake Facets out there.  I have not had trouble with any Facet I knew was real.

I went threw too many Facets and gave up on them. Very poor quality.

I’ve been running a Carter centrifugal for about 12 years and really like it. It’s mounted in the boot (mkII style). It is a bit noisy, but can’t be heard over the headers, flowmaster mufflers and wind nose.

I used to have a Carter.  It was a rotary type - no pump-pump sound.  Replaced it in about '08 when the car was restored.  All in all, I wish I had my old Carter back.

Oh, I definitely agree, I wouldn't replace the Holley with another...but, the darn thing keeps working and I'm cheap. But, nope, no way I'd recommend!  ;)

 I've had no blockage problems since I put the car back together, which included doing the tanks and new lines/hoses. But, I also remember the screen getting blocked after I first installed it in 1994.
