  1. I havea AC Type EP-11 6 volt, 6 PSI electric fuel pump that will be going on my P15 with twi B&Bs with dual exhaust. Has anyone used this pump and what was your experience? This unit also has one electrical connector which adds to my confusion since I am electrically defecient. It is also good with 10% alcohol. Thanks, Mike
  2. I have a 6volt electric fuel pump that will be going on the 48 P15. It will be used with the regular fuel pump on a intermittant basis. It runs 6 PSI. Is this too much pressure? IF so, how do I compensate for it? Thanks Mike
  3. Please save yourself a potential disaster. Move your gas filter from above your manifolds. Metal filters are better than plastic ones but one drop of gas on a hot manifold and your nice engine is toast. Mike
  4. It seems to be vapor lock season again. I think I have a gradually weakening fuel pump diaphram and want to put a 6 volt electric pump on. Which is best? 1.use a switch to use the electric pump when needed. 2. use the new electric pump all the time and take off the old pump. What has your experience been with either of these plans? Thanks, Mike
  5. I thought some D24s had a conventional driveshaft. If that is so, can one of these be altered to fit a P15? Or are there other Mopar driveshafts that would be a better fit? Thanks, Mike

  23. hello all, I have a fenton 2 carb intake on a 218. I just bought a used set of old cast iron fenton headers. The old owner did not have the heat pipes and set up for the intake. Up here in Minnesota we drive it from spring to fall (40 to 90 temp). The 2 carb deal has a hand choke. Is the heat set up really necessary? Thanks in advance.
