Water pump recommendations

Hey, folks, looks like I'm now replacing a water pump. Which should I go with?

Advance Auto Parts down the street from my workplace can get me any of the following overnight:

Brand, Price
ASC, $32.98
Cardone, $35.99 (Part A5581111)
Cardone, $41.99 (Part 5581111 ... note no "A" in part number, I don't know the difference)
Beck-Arnley, $35.99 (Part 1310234, new replacement)
Beck-Arnley, $62.44 (Part 1311422, new OE-type)

Or, from the parts link here:
Brand, Price
Geba, $55.04
Laso, $45.77

Any of these brands notably better than the others?
