So when I go to "trade this one in" on a new pump which is better, a Holley or another Eddy..............or a Carter? I need to be able to move the inlet and outlet around.

Whatever your selection, the best pumps are internally regulated to about a 6lb output pressure which is perfect for most carbs.  All of the unregulated models can go as high as 10psi which is waaaaaaaaay too high for all the carbs that I can think of.

Also, the high gpm models are NOT necessary for 99% of the street applications....so a stock or "higher" performance models are great, don't need the "racing" junk.
