Have any of you guys successfully switched to a low pressure electric fuel pump? (I believe Detonation may have)
If so, which one did you get?

If you want the back story,

After another ~6 month stent sitting, I cleaned out the fuel system to fire it up, and found that the guy who did my tank, wasn't very careful and there was evidence of paint through and through, so that's how my cleaning went as well, petcock to piston. While I thank the maker of my filter, micro fragments had made it all the way to the carbs.
Of course I put her back together dry, and typically it will crank for a time before the gas gets there, except this time I cant seem to get it all the way there. There is some flow coming off the pump, but it's not getting there. Seeing how the youngest pumps are pushing 20 years old, I figure it's time to upgrade to a generic pump.
