I'm replacing a bad low pressure fuel pump on my 914 with dual webers, I've got two questions, first, would it be best to get a pump rated 1.5-4 psi or one that is 4-7 psi? My car has dual regulators so i can adjust the pressure down if needed. Secondly, the pump is mounted beside the battery, would it be better to relocate up where the fuel tank is? Thank you!

I recommend a Pierberg rotary pump. I've sold a ton of 'em. Long lasting, quiet, reliable, and the correct pressure for your Webers. Claude's Buggies sells 'em, and GPR can get one for you pretty quickly. I always mount them in the rubber insulated clamp that comes in the box, but you can also add a rubber mount, the type with a stud on each end. Mount it low. I put 'em low on the firewall under the car, near the stock pump location. If you have the stock nylon fuel lines, you'll need the Porsche original step down fuel hose, as well.
