Well I know it seems like I fell off the face of the planet or something. Just too busy with thanksgiving, Christmas, birthdays, family members not well, etc, etc.
But I have been getting a little bit done.
Got my new fuel tank in, new 3/8" sending unit installed.
Gave up on the carter elec pump, just couldn't figure how to mount it where I needed it.
Bought an Airtex 9ps1 pump that's more of an inline design, in the back, out the front.
I got the pump mounted after making a little bracket that allowed me to mount it on rubber blocks. Should help with the pump noise.
Bent all new 3/8" steel fuel line from the tank to pump, and from the pump forward to the engine bay were I converted to -6an braided line.
I'm minutes away from going to fill a couple gas cans so I can dump some into the new tank.
Pretty much all that's left is some clamps to hold the steel line in place, and then wiring up the pump, relay, and oil pressure safety switch.
Here's a few pics. Enjoy
