Among the choices out there, which fuel pump do you recommend for a supercharged 5.0L small block stroker motor?

I have two Walbro GT40 fuel pumps from Landy that work great. One or two going up for sale soon... :D

Why not ask your builder? they don't seem too knowledgable on modular motors..They mostly do motorcycles, but anyway..AEROMOTIVE STEALTH 340 or AEM 320

How did you assess BRG Racing does not know too much about modular motors?

And they do not do mostly motorcycles. The owner, KC, is a former 70 and 80's motorcycle racer. 90 % of their business today is muscle car work.

The webpage I saw was all motorcycle related, my apologies since I was not aware of the whole picture.

To be fair, Ive actually been to the shop, multiple times. Last time I was there they were dyno tuning a vortech'd mustang gt, one of the techs owns a gt500, etc etc. They are familiar with mod motors, Pushrods, motorcycles etc.

Minor upgrade is the Ford GT / SVT Focus fuel pump

Larger upgrade Aeromotive 340 or AEM 320

Return system upgrade Walbro 400

Dual pump/FPDM of any of these choices also a considerable upgrade.

You need to consider HP levels. All fuel pumps deliver so many gallons per min.

Does it matter to have a throttle controller?

Nobody here runs a throttle controller except with their right foot. And I'm curious what your builder recommended for fuel pump. You've never said yet . What do they prefer?
