Default Can the fuel pump from my EVO VIII work in the Miata?

Hi,
I was looking through the many boxes of stuff left from previous cars/mods. I ran across a stock fuel pump from my '03 EVO... I wonder if it would work with my '92 Miata... I like the idea of recycling stuff...

Oh, no doubt. The stock fuel pump on the EVO is good enough for the 270 FWHP claimed by Mitsu... It's gotta be loads better that the OEM 1.6 Miata pump (at least for flow capacity)

yes, just mate the pump motor to the miata hardware. I'd get everything as close to fitment as possible, then find a machine shop and have it braised.

I've got a supra pump in my current miata and had a saleen mustang pump in my race car. All that really matters is that it will fit like it's supposed to.
