Electric fuel Pump placement

Honestly I was wanting to put a high pressure pump in the tank, there are plenty options. But 60 bucks sounded more appealing than 700. Plus running new lines and all that... i have a bad back and that ontop of the money sounded like way too much for me. There weren't really any indicators of the pump going out, it simply just stopped as i ideled in the driveway making some efi adjustments. Yeah 10 years is not so bad, I agree. The volume of the tank is great, just not at the gasstation haha. I have a thirsty 360 in there that dosent know what gas mileage is haha

I did mount the new pump lower and at an angle onto the framemrail but realized I only have a few inches between the pump and the muffler. I should probably fabricate a heatshield huh?

You don't need or can use a high pressure pump. With any electric pump, it's wise to run a regulator set at 5# where most carbs run best at. You just need delivery and not pressure.

Sniper 2 efi needs 60psi ;) i dont run a carb anymore! The 5lbs pump just fills a sump with a float like a carb. So I can and would need a HP pump in the tank for the efi IF i was wanting to get rid of the sump in the engine bay
