All the fuses are good..

I kinda have a new question I just got a get of delltoro carbs.. They are 45's though which are probably a little bit big for a stock 1971 1.7 I plan on slapping them on with a new set of heads that I am gonna be doing next week.. I just went to HPH in Redwood city and got a new fuel pump which is stock replacement will this pump not work with the carbs or should I see if I can exchange it for a carb pump.. I also plan to wire in a manual fuel pump switch with what ever pump I may use..

Thanks
Dave

A stock pump for fuel injection is too much pressure for carbs. You'll definately flood the engine and then some. You need a fuel pump for carbs that generates about 4-5psi.
