corsair 21 Posted January 11, 2022 On my Corsair when I ran an EFi Pinto I fitted a 15 mm dia pipe to the very bottom of the tank with a Bosch 044 pump mounted at the same level. No swirl pot and never had any problems in 12 years of running even down to about 1 gallon. Now running a V4 with throttle body just the same no troubles Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy 159 Posted January 28, 2022 I decided to paint the sump guard , period silver Hammerrite hammer finnish. I haven't used that for 30 plus years 😳 The tin is that old too, and does not appear to be very hammered looking , but perhaps that happens later🙄 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy 159 Posted February 26, 2022 Yesterday and today ,I've been putting the new headlong in.I have put some Dacron on the roof to help with sound deadening. The rods needed sanding to allow them though the loops, and the loops themselves needed cutting down from 46 inches to 42 , as the originals. The back part is up and glued , I'll let that go off today , and do the front tomorrow.🙂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
