Default Noisy electric fuel pump

Noisy in a cool old-school way that is. Does anybody still make them old-school noisy or should I hunt around for an old SW or other brand on eBay? I want it for my '55.

Bill;

Bruce is correct, all you need to do is mount the pump directly to the frame without any insulators on the mounts, it'll buzz the fillings outta your teeth. A Holley red or blue electric pump (with the required pressure regulator on the blue, no more than 7 psi at the carb) should suit you just fine.

I've found over the years that the guys who really know their stuff can give the simplest, easiest to understand answers.
