I replaced the failed (lasted only 4 months) Facet pump on my 40 ford
pickup with a Carter Rotary Vane (the same design as the 4070, but for 7
psi) and it's been working great. It is however a little noisy, even
mounted on rubber isolation mounts on the frame in the rear I can here it
whine in the cab over the rumble of a 289 at idle, so you might want to
mount it far and low.
I kind of like it since I can tell if I have a pump failure, but others may
find it objectionable.
