Thread: 1955 Fuel pump

    1955 Fuel pump

    Just wondering if it is possible to put a non-vaccuum fuel pump from a 1957 on a 1955 322. I know it will eliminate the wipers but that can be bypassed. Thanks.

    There was a reason GM put dual diaphragm fuel pumps on your engine. There was a reason they changed the system in 57, and there is a reason we all have electric wipers.

    It means someone with more knowledge than you or I designed it that way, and that's the way it should remain.

    I guess i should ask this in another way. Will a 1957 322 fuel pump work on a 1955 322? Or should I just go electric?

    fuelpump

    Hello Buickfriends.I have driven my old 54 in this summer,electric fuelpump,
    Passed the vacum,put it in intake manifold.It works even in summer in
    Sweden whit heavy rain.The wipers go maybe a little fast somtime,then
    they almost stall.Its the driver that get the wiper working.
    This summer it was raining most the time.I keep my lady in
    garage if its bad weather.If you need a fuelpump,or reabuild kit

    Stubbe.
