I'm changing to fuel injection, so I'm going to be using a Walbro high pressure pump, with a by-pass fuel pressure regulator. My idea is to mount the FPR on the block off plate and use the stock fuel pipes.
You’ll need to limit the pressure to 4 psi for your carb.
Your Walbro pump just like other electric pumps are designed to push fuel, not pull it. It needs to be placed as close to the tank as is possible.
