Bob,

I don't think the 1275's in Spridgets ever were equipped with mechanical
pumps, but the same block was used some other models that did.
Consequently, VB and Moss do not list a mechanocal pump replacemnt for
1275's. I don't see any reason why a 948 pump wouldn't work though. All the
cams would have the fuel pump lobe and I believe the mounting boss is the
same. This is all speculation as I've never actually checked it myself.
Give it a try...
