Looking for an original 32 front spreader bar. Thanks

Looking for a usable original 1932 Ford front spreader bar. Thanks, DK

That is what made the most difference for me. I think mounting pump and stand as a unit might not allow seating the rod to the pump cup accurately.

51-MERC-CT, Thanks for the great info. and taking the time to demo. with pictures. I was able to mount the fuel pump with your directions. It helped to mount the base first and then attach the pump as in your photos. This is my first flathead experience. Thanks for taking the time. DK

Charlie, I am thinking the same thing for my situation.

51-MERC-CT, It is an Offenhauser for the latter block. The engine was rebuilt before I bought it. The push rod is new, pump and stand are old. Are the 8CM and 8BA pumps interchangeable? DK

Steve, I am having the same problem with my 1950 8CM and an after market 2x2 intake. My pump with stand won't sit flat even with the push rod in it's lowest position. The rod is fitting well into the FP cup. I don't know what the problem is. I hope we can find out here.
