Internal fuel pump comparison

Just some pictures of Honda vs Tanks Inc fuel pumps

I went with the Tanks Inc because of the easier mounting.

Now I have the Honda stuff just laying around.

One question: How do people block off the original fittings for the fuel lines?

I guess people don't do anything with the old fittings.

So anyway, after I cut them off flush I could see brass and was hesitant to weld.

I drilled out the holes to eliminate the brass, put steel plugs in the holes, and migged them in place - all good now.

The easy thing to do would have been to get some ball bearings of the appropriate size, cut the flange nuts off of the stock lines, and screw them on tight.
