Hi, purchased a fuel pump from 914 Rubber. Their part number is 043 906 043 The pumpkin is a 70 4cyc. Web site says I need an early to late fuel pump conversion. Can't find anything on website for that.
Anybody have a Idea what I need . I have sent 914 Rubber a msg via their contact us email and waiting to hear back but really don't want to wait in case some one knows about this.

Thanks

The only "conversion" needed to run a late two-port pump in place of an early three-port pump is some hose changes.

Eliminate the "Y" in the return line. Either swap in a straight connector, or change out the hose that has the "Y" in it for a single straight piece of hose from the engine return line to the center tunnel return line.

Make sure your supply hose fits the pump inlet. You might need to fake up an adapter if the diameters of those are different; some plumbing supplies should work for this.

That's basically it for a "conversion kit".

Now relocating the pump to the front of the car (where the later cars had it) is a different matter....
