74_5.0L_Z

Is your pump mounted low and near the tank? Electric fuel pumps push fuel well, but do not pull. Pressure losses between the pump and tank should be minimumized for the pump to work properly.

Rustbucket, I am in the process of putting a 1989 5.0L from a mustang police car into an early 1974 260Z. The engine and T5 transmission are installed. The brakes and suspension are complete. I am having a driveshaft made. The wiring is complete(I am using the factory 5.0 fuel injection). The paint is done. I have been working on the project for a year and am nearly ready to start the car. I too wanted to be different and use a nonchevy V8. This path was probably more difficult than using predesigned pieces like those available from JTR, but I think that it is worth it. Email me with questions good luck
