The pump has been removed, and the bronze inserts have been replaced with pertinax (which does not conduct heat). The screws have been tightened to 30 ft-lb (41 Nm). The screw heads have been wire locked.
Thank you very much for the valuable advice.  Attach file:  IMG_4726.JPG (65.53 KB)

Thank you for your help. I have a Packard 1953 Clipper Touring Sedan, Model Chassis 2601, Made for Canada.
Packard Vehicle Registry Unfortunately, I didn't find any markings on the body of the carburetor. So it's probably the carburetor CARTER WGD-784S. Yes, you're right. Considering the time and cost, I will have to make them yourself.

Thank you very much for this technical note, I was not aware of that, I will have to reconsider it.

Is there perhaps a manual available for adjusting this carburetor?

Hello, gentlemen. Everything got delayed, I waited a week for the fitting. During the wait, I at least made bronze inserts for the screw holes. The holes were too large. Today, I mounted the pump. Everything fits, seals properly, and the engine is running. Now I just need to adjust the carburetor. Thank you all for your help.

Thank you, gentlemen, for your contributions. I am a bit confused by all of this. I am planning to install the pump over the weekend and we will see how it goes. I am curious myself. I will keep you informed. Just to clarify, the pump is indeed a Carter with the label M2049S.

I have created a line diagram for the fuel pump, so hopefully, I have understood everything correctly.

Interesting, for example, Max Merritt has it divided like that.

Yes, you're right. That pump is indeed different. As I later found out, this pump is only for the 1953 Clipper model, while other models, including the 1953 model, have a pump like yours. I have no idea why, but it seems to be the case.
Thank you for the good advice and tips. I will first have to determine the actual condition of the pipes, and then I will decide. Ordering pre-made ones would certainly make my work easier, but considering the shipping costs to Europe and various taxes, it doesn't make financial sense for me.
