Auto Parts: 68 firebird fuel pump, 68 firebird, pep boys


Question
Hi Knucklebuster, I have been told to replace my fuel pump on my 68 firebird.  
All of the places on the internet have fuel pumps for a  350 with a 2bbl or a 400
with a 4bbl.  I have a 350 with a 4bbl.  Which one do I purchase?  Thank you for
your help.

Answer
Hi James,

Well, my notes do say a 350 existed in the firebird in 1968 even though it was a Pontiac edition. Your local auto parts store needs to update it's parts catalogs. Here is a link to the item you are looking for at Parts America. I think you may be able to purchase online and have it shipped to you also. http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductDetail.aspx?MfrCode=MST&MfrPartNumber=40601&P...

Looking for a reputable service technician? My advice on finding a good technician is: Steer clear of the dealership and 'chain' stores like Firestone, Sears, Pep Boys, Monro Muffler/Brake, Midas, etc. as they usually only employ ONE ASE Certified Tech just so they can say they do and chances are, that guy is the asst. manager or manager and is not in the store to diagnose/repair vehicles anyway. Find a service location in the link below or get some names out of the yellow-pages and do a drive-by. Garages that employ ASE Certified Technicians will be marked with the 'Blue-Seal' insignia. If unsure about whether a place employs Certified Techs, just ask to see their credentials. ALL ASE Certified Technicians will be PROUD to show and display their certificate(s).

Thanks for the question, I hope this information was helpful to you.
