I would just install it your self. It's not hard to do.

Re: $700 fuel pump or...
when you replace the pump, you should replace the fuel filter also. It would be my guess that adding a fuel cell would be more work than replacing the pump, unless you just plan on putting the cell in the bed of the truck.

That just seems really expensive for a fuel pump. I dont remember what I paid for mine a while back, but I dont think it was anywhere near that much.

Go to www.rockauto.com. I wasn't sure about the details of your truck, but the 3/4 ton with the 6.0L engine had the most expensive fuel pump for $260

I'm doing a fuel cell/ inline pump setup, but I don't know if you want to go that route. I'm doing it because since I have to have a fuel tank, I might as well have it mounted over my rear tires for added traction.
 The only time I would go with a fuel cell/inline pump setup is if you're really needing the extra fuel/fuel pressure. Otherwise, just get a stock replacement. Of course, only my
