Electric Fuel Pump

[1929]

I use a Holley regulator.

Send it to Shipito. They will send to Canada for about $9.

Thanks, I'll check that out, I've looked at Reship but their prices are high.
I wasn't interested in buying a pump, I was just curious about the pump, size, etc.

David,
"Maybe" he had 2 saddle tanks, they're popular in Hot Rods.
Bill Fast

you're probably right, Bill. That's where they should come out. On a truck, i would think that it would be better to put the inlet in the wood part of the bed to avoid cutting the splash apron.

this is a AA SWB flatbed truck. There is a 3" X 6" piece of wood fitted to the top of the frame rail, which the tank is fitted to. The flatbed frame sits on top of the wood which gives about a 6" space, which is necessary to clear the DRWs. The inlet is between the cross pieces of the flatbed, this way there is no hole in the bed or the frame rail. If you didn't know it was there you might not see it. I also put a small screw through the gas cap in the original location so someone uninformed doesn't try to fill the original tank up.

This is the rotary pump I have mounted between the frame edges below the weber carb on my car. I do not use a regulator.

+1 on the Carter. I have a downdraft Stromberg in my Tudor. The pump and a 2 1/2 lb regulator. The Carter is very quiet. I have a Facet pump in my V8 roadster and it is very noisy.

If I want to use an electric fuel pump for the Model A do I need to put a regulator in line and is there a recommendation for what pump to use?
Thanks

I carry an extra fuel line just in case the fuel pump fails, this way I can go back to gravity feed.
