The Walbro pickups require suction to work. There are no provisions on Walbro pumps for this, nor are there anyin the standard tank for pickpup attachment.

Since you already have a tank, as Dave mentions above there is kit available to convert your current tank. See here http://www.vaporworx.com/retroworx_kit.htm

5th-gen pumps can be had on camaro5.com with an OE fuel level sensor for well under $100 shipped with very low mileage. Those guys are putting in the ZL1 pump for big power/supercharging so they don't need their original any longer.

For your power level skip the corner pickups to make your life easier and less expensive.

Hi Carl,

Thanks for the info as I did not know the walbro had no provisions. I am going to go ahead and mod my tank with your Retroworx kit. I will be sending you a PM for the order information you require.

Thanks
