My dad has a '57 Chevy with a rebuilt Chevy 350 he installed about 10 years ago. Lately it's been hard starting after it sits a couple weeks or longer due to not getting fuel (we have to pour gas in the carb to get it running). The engine was built with what I believe is a standard fuel pump from NAPA. I'm wondering if there's something better I should look at replacing it with.
Few more details - the engine was built from a 350 4 bolt main block, has double hump heads (1.94-inch intake valves and 1.5-inch exhaust valves), Edelbrock intake, and an Edelbrock carburetor. It's not super high horse, but guess it's around 350hp. I'm sure a standard pump is fine volume wise, but wondering if there's something of better quality I should look at.
Thanks guys.
