i got a rotary pump from CB performance and it's (IMHO) much, much better than the noisy POS facett pumps ...

I'll second Andy's recommendation for the CB Performance rotary pump. I bought the 3 1/2 psi model. Fits in the stock location nicely on my 75 914, is reasonably quite, and includes an in-line filter on the pump inlet side (I run two filters, one on the inlet side of the pump and one up near the carb).

that makes three.

removal of gas tank is a one person job, no need to remove hood, takes about 15 minutes after it is drained. if you can't purge/drain the tank using the fuel pump running an open line, then it can get messy and a PITA. sorry ...
