From the pic it look slike a standard FRST unit, but not sure as its all on the inside The bit that twists on top of the tank is actually the cradle that the fuel pump,poick up pipe and level sender all sit on .
Untwist this and then withdraw the cradle , refit your new pump, (cossie one has a much larger inlet pipe and also larger wiring ) making sure all fittings are nice and secure , as its a lot of hassle getting the tank off everytime the pipes pop off with the increased pressure
The wiring may also need upgradign as when i changed mine the suppressor inside the tank actually burnt out !!!! This can be bypased as is only there i believe to stop electrical interference for the radio etc
Not hard to do really just make sure evrything is secure and no leaks efoe you start the car again !!!
Dont need a different fuel fuel pump for beige (701's) but the standrad one wont last too long.

Thank god you said that!!
My fuel pump packed up a couple of weeks ago and I traced the fault to this little black box thing.
I bypassed this and it worked again but I wasn't quite sure if I have been driving round in a timebomb ever since!!
