In tank fuel pump installation.

[dukesplace]

Hi,
I have an 80 MGB that is getting a 2006 LX9 V6. I am trying to figure out how to put a HP fuel pump in the system. I've read Kelly Stevenson's installation article. I have questions for Kelly Stevenson regarding the installation of an in tank fuel pump. I was wondering how he came to use a 99 Mailbu pump and if a newer Malibu (say a 2000-2005) pump would work as well. What is the depth of the 77-80 MGB tank and how far does the Malibu pump hang down? Would it be possible to put a HP in- tank pump in a horizontal position and utilize the stock MG sender location installation for a HP pump install?

I'll send Kelly a PM but would like to put it out for other input.

I also read about the install done with the VW pump that sounded workable as well.

Does anyone have other experiences with their projects?

Thanks for any help.

Tim

The 99 Malibu choice was fate.  One of my salvage yard owner friends gave me a complete tank to try.  It just worked!   ck your PM's

Sorry, I have two many windows open and posting in the wrong sections- well, that is if you don't mind reading about axles in a second on fuel pump installation.

Take a look at the Classifieds section regarding tanks. We have a special ending soon you might consider... Now to place my true post on the hub to hub post. Dohh!
