I bought all the connectors and pipe that I thought I needed to do the fuel and the brakes on the car, and made a start on it on Saturday. The plan involved changing the Holley over to a Demon carb that I had won on ebay ages ago. The carb swap was easy, although I had forgotten a connector tube, so I started on the pump. Unfortunately the outlets fouled the bodywork, so I took the pump off and then to bits to try and find a better angle. After about half an hour, I realised there wasn’t one and the only way the pump would clear would be to put the braided hose adaptors fully into the pump, but I could not get them anywhere near. I packed in for the night and decided to have another go on Sunday. It got no better then, as I discovered I’d oredered the wrong hose ends for the brakes, and forgotten one hose completely. I made up a small pipe to fit the carb, which took me about an hour of stabbing myself in the fingers with the braid, then made a few test ends with the tube flaring tool. I also swapped the end of the fuel tank pickup so that I could put braided hose on there as well. Doesn’t look like I’ve done much, but it took long enough. I’ll order all the missing bits tomorrow.
