OK, my car is currently dual carb'd and is running a Facet fuel pump up-front
under the tank. Im eventually going to go back to FI but in the meantime I want to replace the plastic fuel lines (with tangerine's stainless), replace the front rubber lines, and add a front swaybar (sorry CW people). I only want to take the hood and tank off once. I want to enjoy my car as-is this spring. meaning I probably won't do the conversion back to FI until summer. So with that said, I want to run a rotory-style pump (from CB Performance) so I can ditch the Facet. And finally my question... do you think this pump will work behind the lines close to where the original pump will go. I know they say under the tank because those pumps are pushers and not pullers... but if you think about it, with our front mounted tank there shouldn't be any issues. thoughts? |

thanks for the replies guys.
joe, I wasn't planning on running the cb pump with the fuel injection... just moving it to the back until I switch it all back to stock FI. that way I only have to mess with the gas tank and front lines once. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |
