Verifiedhi there, there isn't much that anyone can tell you here. when you are doing a conversion then there is always going to be problems that you will have to overcome by adapting what you have to fit. you will for example have to decide what fuel filter you want to use and then modify the fuel pipes to fit that option. it will be the same with the exhaust. you will have to see what option fits best or modify it as best you can. as for the fuel pump, you will have to get a wiring diagram to see what the wires are for, where they get there feeds from/go to etc and modify the wiring to fit. sorry there isn't a definitive answer for you. good luck. cheers. davie
