What do you all think of this location for mounting my new pump in the front?
Besides space, I have some other goals: 1. Avoiding mounting on any sheet metal shared with the passenger compartment. 2. As much protection as possible. 3. Short fuel line runs between the tank, filter, pump, and hard lines. 4. Access to the lines without pulling the tank. 5. Access to the pump without pulling the tank. My proposed location probably does not satisfy goal 5 (maybe), but otherwise I like it. Attached thumbnail(s) |

I do know about the stock 75-76 location on the left side, but I prefer not to cut an access hole in the bulkhead. With my proposed location, I might be able to remove the pump through the existing big round hole.

With my proposed location, I might be able to remove the pump through the existing big round hole. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That can be removed easily if both fasteners are through the big hole panel. Move it down a bit. Include enough hose to allow it to be removed through the hole with hoses attached. I did it that way. |
