Most carburetors work fine with up to 7 PSI, more than that and you can get issues with the floats not closing. The Carter pumps seem to be pretty reliable for your conversion. ------------- |

If you're getting an electric pump for whatever reason, don't forget an oil pressure safety switch that'll turn the pump off if the engine dies and the key is still in Run. it's a safety thing for you and your passengers that minimizes your chance of fires and explosions  Various examples and reading in the link below http://www.google.com/search?q=oil+pressure+safety+switch+electric+fuel+pump&oq=oil+pressure+safety&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgCEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyBggBEEUYOTIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIKCAcQABgPGBYYHjIKCAgQABgPGBYYHjIKCAkQABgPGBYYHtIBCTE0MTI0ajBqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8" rel="nofollow - link
