Default Re: Rootlieb speedster kit

I toyed with the idea of building a speedster with one of their kits. I didn't even wonder whether I needed a fuel pump. It was going to have one. I figured that there would need to be a lot of fuel in the tank to supply the carburettor and as it got lower, the pressure would drop too much to keep up an adequate supply.
BGTW, I abandoned the idea of using a Rootleib kit when I looked at the prices and calculated what it would cost by the time it was here - way more than the finished car would have been worth.
