I've had my 87 LG4 SC for almost 20 years. The fuel pump went bad about 5 years ago, and the tank was removed before it went into storage around that time. The gauge had not worked for years, my guess is the sending unit.

It's time for the car to come back to life, and I want to replace all that was removed. I've put together a list of everything I **think** I need. Am I forgetting anything?

SPECTRA TANK w/ filler neck and lock ring kit
SPECTRA Fuel Sender (w/Float and Strainer)
In Tank Fuel Pump - CARTER
MECHANICAL Fuel Pump - ACDELCO
Fuel Line Connector
Fuel Filter - ACDELCO
SPECTRA Fuel Tank Strap

Also, while I am doing this, should the fuel lines be replaced? I'm not loaded with the cash, but I want to do this right. I don't want a fire as the result of fuel leaking.

One final question - when I drop in the new 350 someday, will the fuel pumps be adequate? I'm thinking mild 350, maybe 300hp.

Thanks!

 

Rubber lines should be replaced, and steel if corroded.

The weak link for power will be the in-tank electric pump. You didn't list p/n's, so hard to know if you've got the right pump.

The Walbro 255 is a popular choice in these parts, though.

 

Walbro it shall be! As far as the rubber lines, is there a certain grade I should look for, or will any 3/8 rubber hose from Napa do the trick?

 

You should not get fuel line. It's only rated to carry fuel not to be immersed in fuel.
Can't remember the actual number that's required off hand.
