Needed: fuel pump block off plate
I've looked all over and can't seem to find one that'll fit the old fuel pump. Any recommendations are appreciated 😎

I don't know what engine you have but if it is the first generation V8 then a big block Chevy block off plate will work.

Canton makes one, it fits Cadillac as well. Or you can get one from Rocket Racing, Dick Miller or BTR. They’re around.

I’m cheap, I made mine from a chunk of scrap aluminum.

Cadillac Sevilles used the Olds 350 with an electric fuel pump. They had a steel block off plate on the engine's mechanical fuel pump port.That is the cheap OEM alternative!

Available on Ebay cheap. I found some for $16 shipped, with the gasket.

If we are talking about your 63 a plate for a chevy small block will work, if some other car my clairvoyance isn't working well today.... Tedd

Tedd, if a 63 is the same as a 54, it is going to be a big block Chevy. I am pretty sure of this since but at my age I could be wrong.
