If cash is short, and time isn't, I would go with the used one. It's a lot of work, but that's essentially free. A factory pump should last a long time. Most do, anyway.

I agree with .boB. There is a chance that pump won't last long, but then again, I've known some people that have over 200k miles on their original fuel pump. So, you might as well go with the $60 pump. If it goes out in under 90 days, you can always get your money back. Chances are though, it should be fine. Make sure you get a new screen for it and it probably wouldn't hurt to change your fuel filter while you're at it.
