So I bought a pump from Sho Me Speed. He sent me the wrong install kit with the pump. He next day aired me the correct one, which I thought would be correct and it just doesnt make sense. The kit is for the pump style without the bucket.
Has anyone run a walbro with the bucket style without cutting it up?

Here is what I had, I actually sent it back and bought the one Lonnie is talking about.
It basically did not have the brass fitting on the top of the pump. So without this, there is no way to keep the bucket full, you have to cut the bottom out of the bucket to keep fuel in it.

My 99 did not require me to cut the bucket, but under load as the rpm increased the fuel pressure slowly dropped as the bucket emptied and didnt refill quick enough. I'm going about a dual 255 and cutting the bucket with my new build.
