Re: Early S-W fuel pumps

Fuel pump pressure from the SW is only around 1.5 - 2.5 lbs. For running I'd suggest keeping the original mechanical pump. Also when you set-up the DL carb. and check the fuel level, use a fuel supply that matches the pump psi.
I used the same pump that was going to be on the car and plumbed it to the carb. for a bench test. If you just use gravity feed the fuel level is going to be different.
One source for SW pump parts, that fit the original pumps.http://www.classicandexotic.com/store/c-366-stewart-warner.aspx
The SW SW-407 pump fits '32 901's. Harder than hens teeth to find. Took me two years before I found a rebuild able spare.
Occasionally I've seen then at Hersey for $500+.
