Where would I buy the electronic pump, safety pressure switch and cube relay if needed? You're saying to install the mechanical pump and leave it in place?
Would the electronic pump go on the mechanical pump or how does that work? Is it like a conversion?
Hello, so the fueld pump wasn't working, I got a new mechanical pump and noticed that the fuel pushrod wasn't moving. Maybe it is installed incorrectly.
Anyone know what I should do? How do I make sure it's installed correctly to the cam lobe or whatever?

Does it matter...

Not sure where I can buy parts.
How do I find out what oil filter, fuel filter, oil, hydraulic fluids I need to buy...
