>Has anyone out there the details of an electronic fuel
pump installation in a TR6 that they would be willing
to share.
It's a stock engine (no webers etc). Details of pump,
installation (in the front or back of car, on the
frame?) and necessity of a pressure regulator would be
greatly appreciated.

Steve, I put an electric pump on my TR6 when my mechanical packed it in.
For convenience sake I bolted it to the side of the engine where the
original was and reconnected the fuel lines. It has worked flawlessly ever
since. I have since then installed an inertial switch that I got from
Speedway (wrecking yard) from a Ford Probe for about $15 for safety's sake.
The ideal location for the pump is close to the tank but since the tank is
mounted high in the car and higher than the pump I have had no vapour lock
problems. The engine comnpartment location is very convenient in terms of
running the wires.
Cheers
Dave
