How is your pump mounted?. Here is mine, a Holley. It sounds like a coffee grinder, doesn't have the 3 second shutoff feature of the stock pump, and is louder than the engine itself @ idle.

Howard,
I can't imagine why PO replaced firewall with flat plate. There is plenty of room with stock setup using a RH kit. Was the whole drivetrain moved back 1-3/4"? Check rear transaxle mounts......there should be a spacer plate that relocated drivetrain toward rear. It may have been done as some sort of rust repair. I doubt you'll have any luck pounding it out with a hammer. If you replaced interior upholstered panel with carpet, would this gain you space to move seat back? I've seen this done on a couple of cars and the results looked pretty good. I've got the rubber needed for my fuel pump.......just need to do it. Thanks for the offer. John |
