hello all. I just recently joined this board. Some of you on this board already know me but to those who don't. I have a 1950 Plymouth Business Coupe that I am working on and improving apon. Most up to date improvements include Milling the head, Adding ARP studs lowering it, new floors and new brakes.

Currently I am am adding a Fenton two carb intake..

HEY if anyone has an extra Carter Ball and Ball D6H2 Carb I need it!! Let me know. Please! I am having a hard time finding a mate for the intake.

Okay all that aside. For X-mas this year I got an electric fuel pump. I would like to eliminate the mechanical one for relability issues. The model I got was Holley Red 12-801-1. It is a 97 gph (free flow) and 65 gph under 5 psi pump. I chose this model because I can run it without having to run a fule regulator (supposedly).

Now the Question--- Where do I mount this thing in accordance to the fuel tank? It is not feesable to run this pump next to the tank for it will interfere with the rear suspension. My next option is to run it on the other side of the rear suspension closer to the front of the car and mount it on the frame rail. Is this too far from the fuel tank? The instructions for this pump say that it is a pusher type pump so it needs to be gravity fed in order to get its supply. Did I get the wrong kind of pump for this application?

Thanks any help is appreciated.

Justin
