3. This  injection pump has a pod on the top of it, much like a 
turbo-diesel. Anyone  know if the factory ever fitted this type of pump to a non-turbo. 
There is no  evidence of this car ever being a turbo (manifold, oil lines, 
etc). My  thinking is that maybe there was a problem with the original pump 
at some  point in the car's past, and this is all they had "laying around", 
so they put  it on the car.




If it's a turbo pump, there will be a hose barb to the upper half  and a 
vent nipple out the side, for the lower half.  Some were fitted quite  
similarly, with an altitude compensator..  I think Hayden had one.  I  believe one 
side will be vented and the other sealed.  Neither would have a  hose barb.
