From the Demon Tweeks (UK) catalogue listing of the Facet
fuel pumps:
Solid State Electronic Pumps:
-----------------------------
Pump 40105 [Road]: 12 gallon/hour, 2.5 - 3.0 psi
Pump 40106 [Fast Road]: 18 gallon/hour 4.0 - 4.5 psi
Pump 40107 [Competition]: 25 gallon/hour 6 - 7 psi.
Interrupter Electical Pumps:
----------------------------
Pump 476087 [Silver Top Road]: 18 gallon/hour 4 - 4.5 psi,
Usage up to 150bhp.
Pump 480530 [Silver Top Competition]: 27 gallon/hour 5 - 6
psi,
Usage up to 200bhp fast road/competition.
Pump 480532 [Red Top "Works"]: 35 gallon/hour 6.5 - 7.25
psi,
Usage up to 200bhp+ fast road or competition.

So for a road going Alfa Romeo twin cam with Webers, I'd
guess that either the 40106 Solid State pump or the 476087
"Silver Top Road" pump, would be the one to go for. Or
nearest to those ones you can get. However, if you have a
pressure regulator, then having a little more than you need,
probably won't do any harm.
