Title: adding an inline fuel pump and filter (1949 Cadillac series 62)
Post by: Po3824 on May 03, 2024, 11:02:08 AM
I am interested in adding an inline fuel pump and filter near the gas tank, can anyone suggest what brand and model in order to provide the correct pressure and volume to my 1949 Cadillac series 62 engine?

Is there a specific issue you are trying to solve?   I'm just asking because inline pumps come with their own set of issues and are not good at solving some of the issues people think they are fixing by installing them. The note about the filter was one thing that raised an eyebrow. 

Are we also dealing with 6v and or pos ground here?

Google Walt's Work Bench. Walt was a Cadillac guy on this sight for years and he has some very good points about this very thing among hundreds of others. I followed all his advice and experience when I restored our 46 coup and was never disappointed Tim
