mechanical fuel pump
So I have a Vortec block with the machined housing for a fuel pump. My issue is no hole to access cam lobe.
I would like to drill to accept the pump. Has anyone done this? |

Re: mechanical fuel pump
Its a bit more than drilling the hole. It does not look like the hole is cast the same in the side of the block on the one I have. Would need to fins a good size mill to put it in. Its got to be dead on.

Re: mechanical fuel pump
I have seen the jig, expensive.
My block has all the machining ,it even has a hole . It's on the letf side But the hole is not open all the way through There is someone on YouTube just drilling his way through, looks a little cave man. That is what I was thinking about doing. |
