Hi Dick, You may wish to check on using the fuel pump on the vacuum pump fittings as both locations use the same spot on the cam and if you use the vacuum pump fitting you can save the cost of machining and the price of a new cam. In any case you can not have both a fuel pump and vacuum pump on an 0-200. Best regards, Vern ----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- Yes you are correct my pump states for best results the pump should be no higher than 18'' above the bottom of the tank. They say that this is for priming reasons. They are also more efficient at pushing instead of pulling fuel. That is also why many vehicles today have the fuel pumps inside of the fuel tank. Once again the electric pump is for standby operation and that is why I am having my 0-200 case modified for a mechanical pump. There is a bracket available to mount a fuel pump on the vacuum pump mount, problem there is you loose your vacuum pump and I want the vacuum pump.
