[Tigers] Fuel Pumps

[Thomas Witt]

At first I started to look through the applications of the link that Jay 
sent.  The pump seemed built for a bunch of 4 cylinder cars and I was 
concern that the volume might be too low.  Then I got to the second page and 
saw V-12 Ferrari's.  LOL

With the crimped ends this pump is not going to come apart for repair or 
rebuild.  But, as Jay said he already had it.  Visually it looks a lot like 
the external 45 PSI+ pump I use in my Turbo Pinto. We get those out of Ford 
F-150 trucks to avoid the "in tank" needs.
