Once again I have another question for the all knowing list.  I was finally
able to get my "project" to turn over last night.  My wiring is about 50%
complete, just need to install the dash and hook all that up.  I couldn't
wait to see if the ignition circuit worked or not, and it does.  I noticed
my fuel pump was awfully quiet.  I checked and I had 12v so I pulled it.  It
appears to be frozen solid.  Points are a bit on the done side as well.  I
called Pep Boys, they have a purolator "aux" fuel pump for sale.  Two
flavors to choose from, 1-4PSI and 4-7PSI.  I'm running a Weber DCOE 40, so
which is best?  Or does it matter.  From what I can gather from reading the
original SU delivered about 3psi, but this was for use with the SU carbs.
My Weber manual says nothing on PSI requirements.  Thanks in advance for all
the great help.
