I need an electric fuel pump for my engine conversion, g16a engine & SU carb,

Found this on eBay but not sure if it's correct,

Is your g16 originally an SPI verison then? if not just use the mechanical pump.

What pressure is that pump? it doesn't say.

Hi Scottie,

Yes I think so as there is nothing for I mechanical pump that I could see.

I don't know, what pressure should I be looking for?

Thanks

I have the first one Scottie suggested.

It works well but is also a noisy little f*#%#r.
