Brief Description:  Fuel Line Redo - High Pressure Pump

In working on the throttle quadrant cables and connections, I got to the point where going any further, I really needed to get the console and side panels painted. This led to identifying 25 items from the cabin or fuse that I wanted to get painted. I decided to get the floor panels and seat backs powder coated, as well as several other items in the Cardinal Light Gray that Van's uses for their powder coat. Dropped off the items at Powder Coating of Columbus, should get them back week of June 8.

In the meantime, decided to replace the low pressure boost pump which I originally installed when planning on a carbureted engine, but now have an IO engine.

Removed the low pressure pump, drilled out rivets for the pump bracket and associated fuel lines.
Begin planning the install of the high pressure performance airflow boost pump, which will require a mounting cradle (don't have) and new fuel lines.
