Mike,
The Micro electric fuel pump is by Mr Gasket Low pressure model 42S
2--3.5 psi. It's a cheapy I know about $25.00 and change. That's why I'm
thinking of buying a spare (made in China). My MC carbs require very low
pressure and thus perfect for my needs without a fuel regulator. There is
another one that is rated from about 3psi to about 7,8psi. They look
identical. My cheapy gauge even shows a steady flow and no pulsing. As for the
blanking plate, it should work on the 1600 as well. Mounting surface looks to
be the same on both the R16/U20. Do a search on Micro electric fuelpumps and
these Mr Gaskets are every where. As for reliability, like I said it's made in
China. I got it from WWW.partzfinder.com. At the time they were having a
sale.
To wire this up just run the +12 to ign wire thru a fuse block (I used a
7.5amp fuse) and ground - the earth. The car starts easier since you will be
activating the fuel pump just prior to engine start.

Hi Tom,
Can I assume that will also fit the R16 block? What brand / part number
electric fuel pump are you using?
Thanks,
Mike H.

that will work. Perfect fit from Kragens. I got a itty bitty micro electric
fuel pump 2-3.5psi and it works great. No pulsing and steady pressure. Think
I'll get another as a spare for the glove compartment. Noticed that there
is
less racket from the engine without the original too.
