Stock Melling is all you need, check rotor to cover clearance .0025, high volume pump does nothing but put a strain on the distributor gear on a stock motor.

Probably a Melling M55.

Yep, standard volume, standard pressure, setting the proper clearance(which should be done) will raise the pressure a tad, if you want more pressure(no reason to)add an AN washer to the spring.
