ZX9 Help

Hi guys,

I'm currently fitting a zx9r (c) engine to my kitcar. I bought the car as a part build project and so it came with the engine.

However, there doesn't appear to be a fuel pump - what fuel pump is normally used with this engine? Should I just buy a standard zx9 fuel pump or is there a cheaper/better option? Also should it be mounted at the tank or where is best?


Thanks,
Paul

fit a standard one, bike carbs can pee out fuel if you use a car one.

They arn't too expensive either.

Any bike pump will do as long as it is similar displacement, and injection or carbed depending on what yours is (sorry I dont know the letters on 9's...)

ask em to end early OR look for "spares" "breaking" and find suitable bikes that way, most of them have phone numbers on, call em and make a cheeky offer.
