I just got a 1970 1.7 liter stock engine that I am putting in my 914 for temporary use. The car had a 2.0 liter carb'd that I am now rebuilding. My question is what type of fuel pump do I need to use ? Can I just get any fuel pump that supplies at least 28 psi? Is there anything else I should know about swapping a 1.7 injected for a 2.0 carb'd?

Low pressure rotary style....3-5 psi. The 1.7 is a fuel injected pump and is high pressure.
Also, some people use the return line and others don't. Personal preference. You might want to consider an inline pressure regulator and a sight glass style fuel filter. |
