Fuel Pump Change

Recently I changed my fuel pump and I ran into some issues. I noticed that my fuel pump had a return line on it that attached to the return line to the tank. The pump also had a inlet from the fuel tank and the outlet to the carb. When I went to purchase a fuel pump for a 1969 Camaro they did not have a return line. I was really stumped, why would the tank have a return line and none of the new pumps for sale contained a return line. Well I did some research and found out that originally the 1969 camaro SS with the rodchester carb had a return line to the tank. However, the car original had a two piece fuel line to the carb with a fuel filter canister in the middle. The canister is what had the return attachment which a rubber hose attached to and went to the return line to the gas tank. Come to find out that canister costs $50. No way I was going to purchase that setup. I was on a mission to find a fuel pump with a return line. I did some research and the pump with the return is from a 79' chevy pickup. Best Test Fuel Pump #B41216 So I purchased that and was back in business! So if you run into that problem you know what to do!

New Site

I started this blog site to post pictures and videos of my 1969 Camaro SS. I also plan on providing how to information on projects and repair jobs I take on. I'll try to provide pictures along with instructions. So check back soon for more videos, pictures and how to's! Thanks for visiting!

Hooking up Factory Tach

Installing the factory tach was simple.
-- Remove the gas gage from the right bezel.
-- Cut a larger hole in the bezel to incorporate the tach with a dremel tool
-- There are three prongs on the back of the tach
-- One of these is to ground, One is to the distributor or coil depending on your setup, One is to power
-- My MSD HEI distributer has a tach hookup (Works great with HEI)
-- No need to buy the wire harness, very easy to make yourself

Added Factory Tach

Replaced Oil Pan and Rear Main Seal

Rally Stripes Added

Front End Rebuild - New core support, radiator and suspension
