Okay, I tried the Edelbrock 1470 pump & it wouldn't squirt fuel at all. I tried operating it manually (with the top off the carb) & I can't see any reason for it to not push fuel. Did you guys have to do anything to get the pump to work? Also, what does the oil soak do for the leather? I can see it making for a better installation, but wouldn't the fuel wash the oil out of the leather in a short period of time?
