1988 Firebird fuel system help?

I'm setting my firebird up for the track 1/4 mile and need some help setting up the fuel system.
I have 2 comp 140 pumps and the filters for them.
Now for the problem where the heck can I mount the pumps and the filters?
One is for the engine and the second one is for my nitrous system.
Sec the fuel tank I read some where that you can put an AN fitting on the bottom rear of the tank for a pick up?
I'm going nuts here I can't seam to figure this out.
Thanks,

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

Since this is more of a racing set-up question than carb question, let's move it there.

Well I figured out where to put my pump and filter one on either side.
I mounted this L channel onto the frame where the stock muffler hangers bolt to I'm going to put two bolts in the rear to make sure it is solid.
I also have to put the gas tank back in before I mount the pump and filter up so it does not hit the tank.
Simple and I would think it would pass tech at Moroso too.
