Another question. My original engine had a mechanical fuel pump. The new engine I assume had to have an electric pump because there's a block off plate. Do I take the rod from my original block, stick it in there and go about installing the mechanical fuel pump? Or is there anything else I need to check? I don't know if all blocks have provisions for this or not
