Yes, if you are going to put it in/near the engine bay.

Cheers Nick! Found a few online but wasn’t sure about the low PSI pressure rating as most information I found online said I should have between 2-3PSI

Hi all, anyone know if the HUCO sucker pump with the 1.4PSI rating is suitable for the GT6? Don’t want to get the wrong one

At £25 that's a cheap Chinese knock-off of the Facet pump.  Reliability may not be its second name.

Yeah….I’m thinking that now.

Yes. I fitted a Huco “sucker” type. 
 

This is mounted in the engine bay close to the original mechanical pump position.  You could use the Huco pusher version and mount it by the tank but there really isn’t much room back there if you want to carry a spare wheel. Have a pic somewhere, but not on this phone.

Neither of these options needs a regulator as the Huco pumps are low pressure.

You should fit an impact cutoff switch in the pump supply line.

I also ran the fuel pipe from pump to carbs along the bulkhead rather than along the engine block to keep it as cool as possible. This meant reversing the shape of the carb link pipe.

Do you have any pictures of your setup? Mainly looking at the fuel pipe running and locations 

Hi All,

thank you for all the replies! Blown away by the help.

In answer to some questions,

I bought a pump from a trade show (it looks like this one) 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202771434372?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=CEznwNDXSmu&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=byXeiIxMSGG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
 

so will probably look at this Huco range. @Nick Jones

Does anyone have a link to one they used? Found a few online but not if the right type as it seems to vary with pressure ranges.

will be looking to install in the engine bay (as I think this will be better for access!) so will get a suction type.

I also like the idea of moving the location of the fuel line. @GT64fun

Hi all,

looking to fit an electric pump to my gt6, (unless I’m convinced otherwise….), has anyone done this already who could offer some guidance? 
 

questions I currently have are:

were to fit the pump (I’m looking at as close as possible to the tank)

did you fit a pressure regulator (I do have one to hand)

did you wire it into the ignition or a separate switch?

did you install a cut off? In case of an accident etc? 
 

cheers
