Right guys just bought some 45's for my XE...

What else do I need?

Redtop fuel pump?

Filter king? (Any specific type?)

Dizzy? Coil?

I run an spi fuel tank with pump in tank, so will I need a different tank?

Inlet manifold? (Whats all this 7 degree / heated / non heated jargon about?)

All help / advice needed!

Thanks in advance,

Rob.

You will need a early cav/astra carb dizzy/coil.
You could use a SPI pump with a regulator, needs regulating to abouit 3psi iirc.

I think I will use a redtop pump jobbie as my current fuel pump seems a bit dodgy... It cut out the other day...

You will need some way of bypassing the SPI pump.
Im not sure how tbh, other option is to fit a carb tank.

Will try and get a carb tank then.

Am I right in thinking all carb tanks are the same?

What about the GTE?

GTE runs an external pump, its different to a carb tank, think the pipe outlets are in different places.
