|
Hey, just wanting to know the difference between the TX and TG (I think, '84) fuel pumps.
If I put a tx engine into this '84 sedan, what do I actully have to do with the fuel pumps? Will the tx coupe fuel tank fit in the sedan, or what do I have to do to get the existing tank working with the older engine?
thanks for all your help

| You will need to fit the electric fuel pump out of the TX tank to the TG tank as TG ran a mechanical pump on the side of the head. |

| you can drill out head casting, but difficult to keep filings out of motor, and mount a mechanical pump. Purchase an electric pump from repco, peps etc and mount either in boot (noisy option) or under floor near diff (watch clearances). |

is it easy to attatch to the original '84 petrol tank and get it all working and shit? steven, your idea seems good, just need a bit of detail on the process if you don't mind.
