[DeTomaso] Fuel Pumps

[Michael Shortt]

In the dark ages when I drag raced, we had two electric fuel pumps on a 1970
Mustang Mach 1 with a 351 Cleveland.
1 to "push" near the tank and one on the firewall to "pull".  I have no idea
if that worked, but there was never a problem, and the switches looked cool!
