That's great. This will be a truly historic moment made very special by Edd's reunion with the car. Wish I could witness it in person.
Thank you Mr. G. You never fail to amaze me. Casual 6, It's a Walbro pump. These ports are something of a p.i.t.a.

bonzo,I wish the clockable pump would work for me but the front crossmember is in the way too. If I was building this car frame off I would want...
Thanks for the input all. Maybe I'd be better off with the popular Carter 4070. I'm developing a real dislike for electric fuel pumps.
Oh yeah,pump will be located low and a couple of feet in front of tank.
First,another thank you to the good folks who responded to my ethanol compatible fuel hose question. On my next question I saerched here first but...

No rebuild yet. Did a partial teardown and doctored it a little myself. I'm far from being an expert. Remains to be seen how well it behaves. Got...

Anyone have any recommendations for engine builders in CT.? I have a 283 that needs some attention. Thanks.
