Where to mount A1000 pump
Looking under the car I cant seem to find a good place to mount this. I dont think I would trust sheetmetal screws, it needs to be as close to the tank as possible right?
I was able to find 3 pics. Mine is mounted against the spare tire well. You can mount the pre-filter, and the out filter directly to the pump, but it depends on how close your exhaust system is to it. Just to be safe, I mounted my out filter to the side of the hatch bottom. It just needed some extra fuel line to do it, but, IMO, its way safer, and far from the exhaust system. You can reach in the spare tire well, and use nuts, and lock washers if you wish. This is what I did.
You are correct. As close, and lower than than the fuel tank. This is explained in the instructions.
Be sure to buy the correct "O" rings from Aeroquip. Regular "rubber" rings will not cut it. You will need them for the the pump, and filter fittings. the rest of the lines will use regular AN fittings.
Make sure you use the line sizes that Aeromotive recommends.
Is this a carb, or EFI application? If EFI, I have some important info for you.

I was going to use the stealth ram so I couldnt use the stock rails anyway, but by any chance do you know if they would be ok for 650hp? Also it looks like I may have screwed up, I want to run E85 in the future and Ive heard the A1000 wont hold up to ethanol.
