>From you know who, lol.  I love to ask the group about the cars and
experiences. So much info out there! 

This question revolves around the fuel system.  So, I would like to ask the
list about 

1.   The fuel pump. If you have replaced your fuel pump and the car is
virtually stock what pump did you use as there placement? How noisy is it?
Does it do the job reliably?  Was it easy to install? Remember this is for a
box stock 260 motor pretty close to as delivered by Ford. 

2.   Have any of you upgraded the fuel plumbing to feed the above listed
pump? I am currently thinking that I need a new one from the hose joint
connection down under the generator up to the filter just before the carb.
I think I have enough AN fittings to make a new one but not OEM looking. 

3.   Have any of you put a filter in line before the pump to catch junk from
the tanks?  If so, what did you use?  I have seen some large Fram glass bowl
types but something more shatter proof might be best? Like a big EFI fuel
filter? 

 

Love to hear from ya'll on how you replaced stock stuff with maybe better
stuff with small impact to the install side (i.e. an easy install, lol)
