The Ford Barn - View Single Post - ANOTHER 94 dual setup question! (just a bit different)

I just made an upgrade to my two 94's on my '53 EAB engine (Offy intake & heads, Fenton headers, mallory distributor, stock internals)...switched to 4.5 power valves from stock. It made a major difference in everything from idle to mid-range throttle. I have 049 jets. I was previously plagued with fouled plugs, running rich and stumbles from idle. Now it runs beautifully, and I only changed the PV's.

I agree a stock fuel pump is fine. But I'm installing an airtex electric pump because of vapor lock concerns and hard starting after sitting for a long time. Airtex now makes a pump with 3-5 psi output pressure, so you won't need a regulator. The pn was #8902. There was a small article in the back of the latest V-8 Times with informtion about it. I paid $40 + shipping from Woody's-Auto-Supply.com.
