My understanding was that most Complete cradle replacements do not need modification majority of the time, only modify if u replace pump only.

These are the only rated pumps in Australia at 10,000 hours on E85. Edited 08/01/15 11:34 PM by KPM Motorsport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
