So, I'm putting a carbureted 3.0 into my 914. I've just installed the motor into the start cart, and amongst other things I need to set up the fuel system. I'm shifting the pump installation from its factory location to the frunk.
There are a ton of pumps on the market. Is there a specific pump that the collective has found to work best? And yay, or nay on a regulator?

Peerburg pump with a regulator.
It is quiet, and reliable. https://store.allzim.com/pierburg-low-press...l-pump-12v.html They also have a fuel pump mount that uses the steering rack bolts so you don't have to drill any holes. But it is not on the website. You have to call and ask about it. |

Using the Carter LP pump and Holley silver LP regulator (1-4 psi ) mounted on my alloy front crossmember ,had this setup from the start of my 2.2T conversion ,works very well and had no issues.
CB Performance sell the same pump but found it more expensive, can't remember but think I got mine from Summit Racing, cheers. |

I sent them a message. |

QUOTE(Detroit @ Mar 5 2024, 11:43 AM) Thanks, I am in the same boat with a fresh 2.7 will be fired up for the first time soon. On second thought I will use a running Facet for the meantime. At least several other items to iron out as I'm sure you know. Keep us posted with your progress |
