1958 332 Fuel Pump

[mrbilman]

I'm working on a 1958 Fairlane with a 332 engine. The car has a bad duel action fuel pump but does not have any vacuum accessories. We would like to replace it with a single action pump but the pictures in the Dennis Carpenter catalog for that year of car all seem to have different looking arms. Can anyone tell us which style pump would be best for that engine?

you may be looking at a 6 cyl one which has a short arm.pumps for your car are easy to find.

Single action fuel pumps are the same for Y block, 332, 352,360,390, and 427. The easiest to locate may be for a 292 truck from about 62.

I've attached photos of the two arm shapes we are seeing. The one with the straighter arm came out of the car. The other is the style I see listed.

both will work if its made for your motor
