Default Fuel Pump Brand Preference ???

Getting ready to change my fuel pump (check valve stuck), and wondering if people have any brand preference as far as quality, as I only want to do this job once !!! I usually use NAPA parts, but they don't have the pump at their local warehouses and it would take a few days to get it and I have to pay shipping. I can get a Master brand today locally, but not sure of the quality, also it mentions with the Master that you have to re-use some of the parts (pressure release valve/plug and grommet). Any input would be appreciated, thanks.

I put in a Carter replacement (they made the pumps for Chrysler in the first place) mine when I changed it last February.

Well, I went with the Master brand since it was the only one available locally. The job went much better than I expected, took about 2 hours, no cussing, no cuts or bruises, and no beer until done !!! Truck starts just fine now, no more 10 second cranking, also new pump is much quieter.
