For a 66 it will be a bit of work, and you will need to source the bits. Its not a matter of just strapping on a pump.
Without it is a little heavy at parking speed but excellent at cruising speed.
If your SOR then your welcome to try mine, its R&P but about the same weight.

Anytime Dave.
The meetings are the first Tuesday of the month and unless otherwise advised they are at the Jag Clubroom @ 396 Scarborough Beach road in Osbourne Park.
Visitors are always welcome and since I'm out of town again for the next one, ask for Ross Whale AKA  PCOE428 on this forum.
I'll U2U my number in case you find something.
cheers.
