Talking Walbro Install? (I seached, but nothing really helpful)

Hey guys,
I just got my new walbro fuel pump and was looking for some good directions on the install since I don't believe it is a straight drop in.

Anywho, does anyone know some good directions for the install. I found the write up about re-wiring it (which I will be doing at the same time) , but nothing about a new fuel pump install.

Can anyone help out??

thanks guys,
-josh

Josh, I can help you with the install (since I just installed mine about 3 weeks ago)...its very straight forward except you have to splice the two wires that went to the old fuel pump and crimp them to the walboro. Give me a call if you need help 504-710-8573.

Edward,
I am probally going to do it this weekend if you are available. I need to install my 99 spec front lip also if you want to lend a hand. I am scrapping the RB lip if any body wants it FYI. It is in perfect condition except for a little nik on the very front from rubbing a wheel bumper thingy once.

Looks like this one, but is black. Really follows the lines of the car well! I will try to find a pick of it on my car.

Yes, they are both stock replacements so you'll use the same wires. If you are talking about the rewiring of the fuel pump instructions that is different.
