Default SU Fuel Pump

Having read all the reply's to this post it makes me wonder if an electric fuel pump was ever original equipment on 408s and 409s . The parts diagram indicates not. My 411 mk 2 has a mechanical pump { standard Chrysler }fitted to the engine , makes you wonder !!!!!

411 S5 also has the mechanical pump. Had to have it replaced last year.
Why install an electric pump, when the mechanical ones work?
Less parts that can fail.
