I am digging out a  a project I shoved aside about 4 years ago. I have a 91 Chev pickup that we have installed a 425 Caddy in. My question is about the fuel system...will the mech pump pull gas through the in tank pump? or can I use the factory electric pump with a regulator? or pull the tank pump, remove the pump and weld on tubing and filter? I'm trying to take the lazy way out here.

you can use the factory pump with a pressure regulator on a carb.

make sure the regulator is a "return" type and not a cheapie..
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it\'s still on my list
