Project Cheap & Nasty Updated With Back Story
So I've been thinkin on it and even as cheap & nasty as this project is, I couldn't in good conscious use that camshaft with a half tore up fuel pump lobe, so I picked a much better one out and cleaned it up instead. It measures in at .405" lift. At least this way, I will start the project with the stock mechanical fuel pump. I'm pretty sure, if all goes as planned, I will get it running good enough to easily surpass what the stock pump can supply, but at least this way, I can use what I have right off the bat, without having to build another fuel system. I'm going to have the original lifters refaced. @replicaracer43 Sean has agreed to do the job. I'll be sending those off to him first of next week.
