electronic fuel pump mounting...

Post by YEAH »

iv got a "facet fuel pump" that needs mounting up as soon as really, just need a bit of advice as to where is best to mount it. should i tuck it away in the back of the car somewhere near the fuel tank or right up frount in the engine bay some where near the driver's side chassis leg?

anyone else have one fitted?

and if so, where's best?

i havent had any problems yet and its been there for over 6 months

i think i will go for the inner wing option out of simplicity.

however.

got the car fired-up for the fist time on friday night sice fitting the carbs and the head. we got it going with the original crank-case lift pump. im not gunna keep it with that, obviously, will fit the facet in the week.

but, oh god did it sound awesome :cool:
