kinda think this has been covered before, but since i am unable to find it.. does anyone have any experience as to what manual fuel pump is best for a 292. had an AC with the glass bowl filter ,but it has since quit pumping. any suggestions?

If you want to stay original, kits are available for the AC. If you have electric wipers, you can buy an Airtex for about $35. Double action is about twice that. Bosch is about $50 more.

thanks, not really concerned about wipers cause dont have none on my 32 cpe. would an fe early 70s pump work?

Y block and FE have nothing in common. Go to the Rockauto website. They have as good a price as anyone unless you want an electric pump. It depends on how radical your Y is.

An FE pump should work fine.

thanks charley, seems to me i remember that is a viable option

Early 70's F100 with a 360 FE is a nice pump for the Y block. It has the built in filter canister, I have one on my old truck and it looks good and works great. Picked it up at NAPA.

thanks , napa is the closest to me. should i just ask for a 360 fuel pump , say 71 or 72?

The 360/390 FE fuel pumps will work on the Y.  1972 thru 1976 Ford pickup will get you the pump with the canister filter on the bottom of it most of the time but rebuilders will occaisionally mix in a different pump which will still work.  Any FE fuel pump from 1958 thru 1976 will bolt up though but may require some manipulation of the fuel  inlet and outlets to get the fuel routed correctly.

I use a Holley high performance pump for a 427 fe on my Y-Block. Works fine! Chuck in NH

Looking for McCullouch VS57 brackets and parts. Also looking for 28 Chrysler series 72 parts. And early Hemi parts.
