Do I need power or manual gas pump?

Hey guys, just put the gas tank in the back under the bed, ran new gas line to it and starts and runs like a champ, for now. Will it stay this way or do I need to put a power electric pump on and if so which one? I've got a 292 6cyl.

The mechanical pump you have will be fine. No need to swap unless you feel the need to burn some cash.

Unless your truck pulls more than 1 g acceleration, the standard pump will be good enough.
