What fuel pump do you guys use? I've got to order a new pump, and was looking at the carter that summit has, but the 1/4" npt fitting seems a bit small. What pump do you use?

Don't have the receipt handy but I think it was around $100.00.
You can buy brass fittings to reduce/enlarge if need be. My line fit fine on the 1/4" stock barb with no leaks using the supplied hose clamps.

I use a Holley FPR and liquid filled gauge- stays right on the money now.
This is the second Weber pump I've used. The first one was on my old 81 with a SP 13B and a Mikuni. No fuel delivery issues with that set up either.
