Can someone dig up some pics of where the stock 1975 fuel pump sat. I know it was in the front behind the little black metal door in the front trunk and underneath the tank.

What fuel pump part number was used for these?

Does anyone have pics of how/where the pump was mounted?

Where the fuel lines ran to and from the tank and to the fuel lines through the bulk head.

How it looked from the little access door in the the front trunk, etc.

Thanks,

Karl

Here's an image of a hack job (Noooo... you say, not in a 914! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) )

it does give you an idea of the location and the line routing. You can also the tabs for the factory fuel filter etc.

It's nice if you ever want to change out the pump. A few screws and it comes out with the door.

You'd have to a get a pump that would be spec'd for the motor you're installing.

I realize that. Just trying to figure out if I'll use that location for a more powerful pump or stick it in the front trunk. I also have a large fuel filter (canister style) to install.

I may stick a larger pump in the original location and then place just the fuel filter up front... haven't decided yet.

I also have a swaybar going through there and the oil lines routed in that general area, so it's getting a bit crowded.

I can't use the Bosch 009 fuel pump. It's on the edge of fuel flow requirements for my 3.2L with 46IDA carbs.

I could possibly use the Bosch MFI pump and regulate it down... but they are borderline unobtanium. The new ones Porsche re-released a few years back are Chinese-made.

Fuelpumpking has the MFI pumps, but the reviews have been mixed with a lot of leaking or seizing pumps.

So I may just go with a regular Bosch rotary in the stock '75 location, and then place the fuel filter console in the front trunk.
