<VV> electric fuel pumps

[Ken Clark]

Rich--you will probably get a lot of recommendations on this subject, but here is how my setup works on both my '65 and '66 Corsas.  Fuel pump located on cross beam just behind fuel tank.  Ran power to cut off switch in glove box and only use elec pump after car has been setting for a time to pump up carbs or to use when mechanical pump fails.  I use the mechanical all the time as the gas pulls through the electric one with no problem.  Just be sure to have a cutoff switch in case you ever get rear ended and you won't have gas pumping and could cause a major fire.   Ken Clark
