Not to the best of my knowledge. I know that there is some marine pump that someone bought at walmart and it was supposed to be better, dunno how that ended up but I wouldn't trust it lol. I know a cheaper possible route is the ford lightnings use the same pump we do, you might be able to find one on summitracing.com or something like that.
But I still recommend ottperformance.com and a direct replacement.
Also if you are under warranty and don't have to many mods this is something the dealership would cover.
edit: I would rather support a vendor on this website such as ottperformance.com than any member on ebay. I know that the products they sell are legit and that they are good people and will always work with you if there happens to be an issue, which there never is =D.

Ford Racing's pump is a direct bolt on. I have it, fits just fine. Check out the pumps side by side

GM to the left, Ford Racing to the right, both are BOSCH. This is the $89 E-Bay one.

Actually it isn't the same as the GM one. I believe that is why there is such a price difference.
According to the service manual, the GM pump does 420 GPH and the others do around 320 to 340. I have also confirmed this by the numbers on the actual pumps.
I took the chance on the Ford one anyway. It came today.
Intercooler
The supercharger has an integrated intercooler. Cooling the air enhances the effectiveness of the supercharger. The intercooler uses conventional coolant in a separate sealed system from the engine cooling system. The intercooler system has a radiator, a reserve tank/filler neck, a pressure cap, attaching hoses, and a pump capable of a 26 liters (7 gallons) per minute flow rate. The pump is commanded ON, by the control module, whenever the engine is running.
Oh, missed this. I have 3,000 miles on my car right now.

Looks like you did your research really well. I wasn't aware that the pumps actually flowed different amounts. I very well might have to pick one up. Why did you buy the pump if your car only has 3k miles...It really shouldn't have gone out at 3k miles lol. Or just looking for an "upgrade"?
