Working out the plumbing details for my six conversion for the fuel lines. I've read a few threads and I'm still confused.
I'd like to keep the fuel pump in the front underneath the tank. (The 1975 car I'm staring with had it there to begin with.) What sort of pump should I use to get the 3.5 to 4.5 lbs pressure I need for the Weber 46s? Hardi, Bosch, Rotary, Holley? Do I need a return flow line? If I have a pump that flows at 3.5 lbs, do I need a pressure regulator. I also plan on installing a filter before the pump and one before each carb. Thanks, Karl |

Just FYI on the pumps.
A stock 9146 carb pump has been watched on a hot rod 3.2 engine during a few dyno pulls and it keeps up just fine. My not work at the track... but it worked great for back to back to back pulls. B |
