The fuel pump on my car was removed and replaced with an in-line pump in the engine bay. It was located next to the carbs, and was big enough that air box was removed by the PO. I've pulled the in-line pump and put the air box back in, but now have noticed that it is running very very lean ;-)

Got me an SU pump (can't live without the clicks), but don't have original pump or mounting hardware. Any pointers on mounting possibilities ? The complete pump assembly was cut out and replaced with flexible fuel line, at this point I have the fuel pump only. Pictures from the Anglo catalog below.

In particular, looking for recommendations on inlet and outlet hardware. Is flex hose good enough, or do I need the banjo bolt (4), union (7), and flex line (6) ?

Thanks,
Chuck

OEM were petroflex and my advice is to use OEM. These lines are wrapped in steel threads not unlike what you seek for the carbs.

I'll shortly have a complete factory PDF for all MGC parts on the web site but this will serve better than Anglo to my eyes anyway.

I have most of these bits in stock.
