Then stop making a habit of suggesting junk parts for a system you don't understand.

I would also suggest that vehicle.
And that is the problem here. You know next to nothing about fuel systems (even to the point of suggesting a lawn mower has a fuel regulator) yet you're making suggestions on how to modify them.

Sorry, no, you've got the situation reversed in your head.

I think a powerstroke high pressure pump is the worst choice of all 12 volt pumps you could possibly find out there for someone to install in an emergency, and in any other situation.
Seriously? Until an hour ago you didn't even know there was a pressure regulator in the fuel system! You have no ground to evaluate the application of anything here.

The reasons why is its just plain wrong as far as specs, and just too expensive to play with.
Hello? You don't even know what the specs need to be! On top of that, whunter already pointed out the cheap availability of the pumps in scrapyards. Why would anyone here consider buying one new?
A used high output pump is far better than a new piece of junk that barely meets the minimum needs of the fuel system.

It was an expensive isspro fuel gauge
ISSPRO ≠ Expensive. They are good gauges for casual automotive use, but they are not accurate instruments.
Got that dyno sheet I asked for?
