Yeah...that I am an idiot...

The electric pump works great! I had to install a relay to activate the
pump. The relay is hooked up in parallel to the electric choke circuit,
so it will turn on/off when you turn the key.

Last year I replaced the stator with a standard alternator conversion
kit for $400. I figured if they have conversion kits for the points,
fuel pump, and loads of other items, why not ask?

Ok. I will just buy a carb rebuild kit and give it a shot.

Thanks

A brand new carb will cost a fraction of a conversion.

A rebuild kit would be a fraction of that fraction, even. If I'm not
mistaken, this is the same Merc where the owner added an electric water pump
when he couldn't get the stock pump to work. I'm beginning to detect a
pattern.
