Re: engine swap

I'm pretty sure you don't have an in-tank pump.
My '86 that came with the LG4 (carbureted 305) doesn't have one.

Re: engine swap

The L69 should have had one (VIN G). An 85 with the LG4 could have had one installed by the dealer as a fix. Both still used the mech pump on the motor with the in-tank helper pump.
