I was/am somewhat interested in a Putzke Bilstein conversion, but I 
noticed the fuel pump for a BJ8 has to be relocated by bending the 
bracket at a sharper angle.  Probably not possible with a double-ender.

                  SU pump that has lasted decades with an aftermarket
                  pump that requires modifying the fuel lines, adding
                  additional fittings, clamps &amp; altering the
                  mounting brackets (all additional sources of
                  failures), vibrates continuously, etc, when it would
                  be so much easier &amp; more original to simply
                  replace it with a new highly reliable SU fuel pump? If
                  you are concerned about being stranded at the side of
                  the road, carry a spare SU or even better install it
                  in parallel &amp; wire up a selector switch so you can
