I just roughed out the placement of the 75 pump in the 73 stock location. Not the best fit. One problem the fuel filter can't be secured in the 73 filter holder. I also think the plastic lines might have to be trimmed. You guys have any suggestions? I'd rather not move it up front. Capt'n is this the way you have done it? Thanks for the help.

How did you end up mounting it to the wall? Have a shot of the work? Love to see how you did it.

Hey Tod,

Yea I will. Basically I used a 1/8 galvinized plate which I mounted with Tek scews and permanant loctitie. Then I used a galv. clamp that Underthewire used for the fuel filter. I carefuly routed and replaced all the fuel lines. The supply from the tank I routed right behind the wirng harness where it comes out of the firewall.

I know this is worthless without pics..... but it started raining here so freakin hard that I had to batten down the hatches at the house. So I ran out of time today. They are saying we are gonna get 10 inches of rain this week.

I'll take some this coming week if I don't float away.
