Re: In tank fuel pump for 1963 SF ??

Herb,

Thanks for the info and the link. I'm not enough of a fabricator to modify a tank however I guess I could use an EFI pump with a regulator and return line on a carb if I found someone to do the work on the tank.

Probably my best bet is to relocate my electric pump and maybe try to find one that does not make as much noise.

By the way I really like your 1963 Fury that was the February 2012 car of the month:

I fabricated mine. Cut a hole in the top of the tank of my 63 Fury for a contemporary MoPar pump and used the factory sender. Just removed the pick-up from the sender and welded up the hole. I fabricated an access panel in the trunk floor to R&R the pump if it ever goes bad. External pumps have a noticeable shorter life expectancy than a internal, due to lower operating temps from being cooled by the gas. Of course after all the trouble I went through now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KquGi4HTkw

Well .........

If you were to maintain a tank of fuel it would keep the pump cooler for longer life cycle of the pump or that's my understanding. Hence the reason you not supposed to run your vehicle low on fuel all the time

OK, somebody please enlighten me. I've never seen any evidence that in-tank fuel pumps do anything that inline pumps cannot do. Maybe I haven't looked in the right places.
My belief, since I first heard about in-tank fuel pumps in new cars has been "what a cool gimmick for auto dealers who get to charge customers to drop their fuel tanks to service
a component that is generally much easier to service when it's not in the fuel tank". Some acquaintances have said that I'm cynical. Maybe.
I heard this some while ago: "No matter how cynical I get, I just can't keep up!".
So, out there in the real world, why is an in-tank fuel pump better than an inline one?

OK,

I suspect this is a dumb question but does anyone make a fuel tank for a 1963 Sport Fury that will take an in-tank fuel pump?

I have been doing a Google search to see if a retrofit sending unit with fuel pump for our tanks is available or if anyone makes a retrofit fuel tank and so far I have not found anything. If anyone has any thoughts or information on in-tank fuel pumps it would be appreciated.

Thanks
