I am soon to upgrade my fuel system a little and found both pumps I need along with the best pricing at Summit. Online at Summitracing.com I notice that their M6405 carter picture seems incorrect. Everywhere (other retailers) else show a factory type, deep canister stamped pump with a return. Even Carter. Summit show one of their street/strip aluminum pumps with the "picture may not match" the item disclaimers. Just for a little clarification I emailed their "customer service" group and asked which it was and asked for a real picture or scan.
I get this reply back after 3 days;
the M6405 is the direct replacement for the 1974, 455 as used from the factory. The Competition pumps, such as the unit pictured, do not have the return line since it was never really required. As listed this is only a representative photo. As listed on the Web it has the return line.
Obviously "AC" put a lot of effort into his reply. None. So I pointed out that I wanted to buy a P4070 electric, an M6405 mechanical, a relay and a couple of other assorted items and hated to go somewhere else if there was some sort of mix-up.
After just a few minutes "AC" fired back....
As listed in the above description it has the factory return
So? Now it has the return? I explained that I had indeed read the description online and even seen the picture since those 2 items had prompted me to contact Summit for clarification "AC" must not be able to contact the world around him.
