The 90 degree flange supplied
with the kit was used on the inlet side of the pump. This was modified as shown below to
allow the inlet and outlet connectors to be in the same plane. An extra 6 holes were
drilled in the 90 degree flange to allow this to be possible.
The extra 6 holes in the flange can be seen in the photograph above
Right angle
sections were cut from 32mm radiator hoses purchased at the local spare parts shop and
fitted as shown below.
Two short 32mm right angle lengths of hose were cut out of a standard hose
A small mounting
tag was made from from a piece of flat bar as shown below. This was mounted to one of the
two mounting 'ears' supplied with the pump.
A small bracket was manufactured
The bracket was
attached to the distributor fastening bolt as shown below. This bracket in addition to the
support from the short sections of radiator hose provided a very secure mounting for the
pump.
Final mounting of the bracket
The pump was
connected via a switch under the dash to 6 volts. The wiring harness provided was modified
and the fuse (supplied with pump) inserted inline. The pump draws less then 2 amps under
load conditions. Davies Craig offer two other methods of connecting the pump, these are
optional and most likely would not suit the Austin Seven owner.
