Plenty of facet fuel pumps being used, you need to read the spec sheet and make sure the fuel pressure is around 3 PSI.

I use the Facet electronic one, it feeds my 1360 with 45 Dellorto just fine..
It worked fine with my HS6 SU on the 1412 as well.

No need for a regulator if you buy the right Facet pump. :D
Mine is a 40104N.

If you happen to buy a Purolator regulator, get a pressure gauge too because their calibrations are hopelessly out.
