When I bought my Top Gun years ago, it had a couple of warmed over big blocks. When I went to look at it, it had two electric fuel pumps in the bilge & mechanical pumps on the motors. I questioned it & the owner said he bought it that way & didn't use the electric pumps since one had stopped working & the motors ran fine without them. After I bought the boat, I ran it & it ran great, so I just removed the electric pumps. It was set up that the mechanical pumps had to pull fuel through the electric pumps. It also had boost gauges in the dash so i knew it had bigger motors in it at one time. The dash was wired & had what appeared to be factory switches for the pumps.
