The one with the hook pulling on a loop doesn't look like a good idea. Gonna go electric? It would be nice to find a GM sender/pump/pickup assembly or even a GM tank that would fit the Amboat, IMO. I'm kinda looking into doing that with some of mine.

I've got the later style pump in there for the time being. Going to rebuild an original 70/390 pump I have lying here. Same innards as the Ford CJ pump and parts readily available.

I have one of those rebuildable pumps off a 290. Up in the air as to whether or not I'll ever use it.

I get kinda spoiled with my '88 Chevy. It's carbed, but still has the in tank fuel pump. No cranking forever to refill the carb after it sits. Just turn the key on, wait a second or two, and fire it up.

I run and external Holley Red and carry a spare. It's real easy to change along the road, if need be and no hot engine to contend with.

I've never run an electric pump on a carb'd engine.
