A few pug conversion questions

Looking at getting a petrol T25 and fitting a pug 1.9 to it but i've got a couple of questions.
I've seen a few pug 1.9td lumps in scrappies with either the lucas or bosch fuel pumps on them but which is best?
Is the bosch one more tunable?
Is it true you can't run the lucas one on veg oil?

Also, how easy is it to connect the water hoses from the engine to the existing water pipes in a T25?
Is there a certain model to get suitable hoses from or do you just use universal hose?

Not to hot on pug stuff but do know Lucas and veg oil don't mix so def go with Bosch pumped engine if looking to run on veg oil

yep, jp is right the Bosch pump is more tunable and will run on veg oil. The lucas one ain't happy about either!
