newer fuel pump retrofit for '71 1800e 1800 1971

I've been told by a few local sources that the new fuel pump being specified for the 1971 1800E is the same as for a few 240 models. I've put one in bosch(0 580 254 949)and bypassed the extra hose from the return line that went back into the old pump(just sent it back into the tank).

Has anyone done this? I'm just getting a whole lot of flooding. Set the pressure regulator down too to no avail. It seems the flow is too high.

Do I need a new regulator? Or should I just get my old pump rebuilt? Any suggestions?

Thanks
