So I'm not getting fuel and took apart my mechanical fuel pump. The motor is an early c1500 454, '73 or'74. Checked the rod length, good. Then I looked at the pump and noticed the arm looks a little short and it has 2 ports on it, I thought the 454 had 3? Looks like maybe a small block pump. My question is if I get the correct pump with 3 ports, I don't have anywhere to put the return line on my '30 roadster with moon style tank. Is there a certain year 454 that has 2 ports on the mechanical fuel pump? Do I cap the return line? Thanks.
get a 2 port pump. There are several pumps available for the big block. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/d...=Search_C0401_5153717_3090&pt=C0401&ppt=C0025 for example
