Fuel pump for carbs

Both of the fuel pumps that Pelican offers claim to be for Webers only. What should I use for my Dellortos?

Thanks

David

Call Chris at Tangerine Racing. They sell a soup to nuts fuel line replacement kit from the tank to the engine for carbs or fuel injection. Even if you don't need the entire kit he could probably hook you up with the correct pump. He's a great guy to deal with. Pelican is obviously great too, but if you have already called them, then I would try CFR.

I was going to recommend someone local but since there is no indication what your location is...

I didn't look at the particular product.

I guess if it mounted on the carb it would matter....
maybe????


but otherwise, I can't see how a fuel pump can recognize what brand of carb it is pumping fuel to.

both carbs need about the same volume and pressure
so any pump that provides that spec, and you can figure out a mounting system for is good enough.

the holleys are good pumps

but facets have also worked on thousands of cars
(although they can be annoying and loud if not insulated correctly)

any pump for carbs (low pressure) should work

The variable is fuel pressure, and any fuel pump that outputs at 3-5 lbs will be fine fro carbs, irrelevant if they're Webers. Dellortos. a Holly or Mikuni's.
