What top configuration are the judges looking for (most favorable) in the 4657 fuel pump? pumps with or without the frog pads?

James,

For 1965 it's the frog pads.

Tim,Frog pad teminology was invented by Jorjoian. ( I think) Those 4657 pumps typically have a suffix after the number. Easiest and cheapest one to find Tim.
Jackson's Old Time Parts in MN (they have a website) has a rebuild kit for them for ethanol. John

James,
The NEW 6th edition judging guide for the 1965 Corvettes is now available. Thanks to all who worked on the new manual. Mechanical section on page 134 shows a picture of frog pads on the 4657 fuel pump,

Page,

Thank you, I have found the correct fuel pump for my application, and have just received it. It was rebuilt with the kit for ethanol fuel as well.
