A carb pump should work as they are usually only made for a few pounds of pressure. That would be easy to mount after the tank switch over. Maybe time time to replace all my lines too. Never ending I tell you lol.

Just add an electric low pressure boost pump and it will solve all the vapor lock issues. Aeromotive makes a nice one you can get at Jegs. I've used them many times.

Yeah, so I just went out to work on her, put a little fresh fuel into the filter, and she started right up, no issues. Ran like a champ, shut her down and am now waiting to try again in a little while. ;) I am on Summit right now, will look at Jegs as well. Thanks guys! Oh and Bob! I am hoping to come down to Travis in a couple weeks, you gonna be around?? Have yet to hear your setup, and nothing makes my day more than a beast of an engine lol.

Let me know when you're going to be on Travis. Not many ramps to access it with the water so low.

Will do Bob, last time I was there, we put in at Highland Lakes Marina. Was a bit scary with the wind blowing you directly into the rock wall area, but the ramp worked well :)
