Not sure which pump the region carries but Airtex is another good brand that has been around for years. Whichever brand you choose, pay attention to the psi rating as some put out over 10psi and would definitely need a regulator.

Airtex has a couple of pulse type 6v pumps suitable for carb use and should not require a regulator. Many have installed those next to the fuel tank and use in conjunction with the original pump. Check out the E8902 at 2.5-4 psi or the E8011 at 5-8 psi.

They also have the E84259 which is a rotary vane type at 4-6psi. That one would need to have more elaborate plumbing to work with the existing mechanical pump and smaller Packard fuel line but would fit the criteria for quiet. Available from many places but Amazon also carries all of them at reasonable prices.
