Had my roady hooked up to a "ignition on" source but my racer was wired through a switch. Great for getting fuel into the carbies after sitting for a while.

 

For CAMS events, it is a requirement for the pump to be hooked up via the oil pressure switch, but no one ever checks.....

so basically i can hook it up anyway i want and do i need a regulator or not everyone keeps saying i do and don't so what is it?

if you're running standard carbs, I wouldn't worry about it.

^^^^^^

 

What I have been saying!

 

In fact with the factory twins, the extra pressure helped the performance.

Well I had the privilege (I won't say pleasure) of hearing a Facet Pump starting up and pumping the other night and my god they are loud. This particular one was mounted under the back of the car on an AE86 Sprinter and you could really hear it.

 

I hope mine will be ok mounted in the boot of my 71 as I do not want to fork out the $200 or so for a Carter Lift Pump.

To try and eliminate some of the noise use a rubber mounting. I found the little rubber

blocks used on vl commodore airbox mounts to the body to work quite ok.

Yes use those rubber mounts for sure and make sure its mounted under your car not inside of the boot.
