Fuelling queries on a 20v

hi all, I'm putting a 20vt into my mk1. It was/is a carb'd small block. Now to fuel it ill need a fuel pump. I'm assuming all I'll need is the budget inline pump from crazy quiffs along with the pump bracket from there and some 7mm fuel line to run it up to the rail. Am I right or am I missing something?

So so ill need:
- inline pump
- pump cradle/bracket (both from crazy quiffs)
-7mm fuel line.

Many thanks  

Hi Matt,

It depends if you like corners If you have a small block carb tank it won't have a swirl pot in the tank so on heavy cornering you may get fuel surge.

The general consensus is to fit a late cabriolet lift pump in the top of the fuel tank which replaces the stock fuel sender and this then fills a cabriolet plastic external swirl pot.  http://www.classic-vw.co.uk/mk1-golf-cabriolet-gti-fuel-swirl-pot-533201151a-4981-p.asp



The swirl pot is then fed to a Gti style inline fuel pump which you have mentioned. http://www.classic-vw.co.uk/mk1-golf-gti-fuel-pump-x285-barx29-4711-p.asp

This is the set-up I ran with my G60 and about to use on my R32.

Any questions give me a shout. I have managed to maintain the existing locations of all components under the car except for the plastic swirl pot which is located in an accumulator cradle in stock gti location.

Well you sir are a hero.  

So ill need the two things you linked and to find a late cab lift pump and some fuel pipe. 

Cheers mate. You're a legend. Cheers 

The easiest solution may be trying to get hold of a decent gti fuel tank then those components aren't required.

The tricky bit to get is the lift pump. There are different versions of this. I linked to a pic of the one I have. The external swirl pots are quite easy to come by now.
