Thanks for the help. I'll scout around for a mpi pump at mitp. Problem is people will want to sell the pump and tank together.

My saab is the later type Joe, but thanks for the help!

When talking about fuel line sizes, the general rule is that 'tube' is measured by its OD while 'hose' is measured by its ID.

Therefore when talking about an 8mm ridgid fuel line of 6or 8mm it is 6 or 8mm OD

The standard SPi or MPi fuel lines work fine with 150hp on my car with a Walbro 255 pump in the tank which is pushing a far greater volume of fuel than I will ever ever need.

 Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...
