I was going through my goodies and i found this Carter elec fuel pump.My stock one has to go,not enough psi.I will let pic speak for itself.

 

I was going to post something funny, but the moderators have been cracking down lately.....
Maybe consider on the wall behind your desk?

 

Come on man,im for real.This pump came out of a 1st gen and i really dont want to cut my car up.I was looking for advice.

 

mount it in the stock location. make a mount and mount it to the stock fuel pump bracket. whats with the red silicone on the pump?

 

we've been mostly cracking down on questions that have been asked a ton of times and are asked without first searching. just trying to keep the forum clean form double or triple threads of the same question. we also crack down on disrespectful members. your comment about "the wall behind your desk"was tasteful and humorous. this thread is mostly original and the question is legitimate.

 

I think the person cut a hole in the rear hatch floor and bolted it down that way.

 

Thanks man.I just dont have 100.00 bucks for a smaller pump.Just wondering what you guys would do if you had the same.

 

^^thats pretty scary... i would definatly make a mount for it and use some soft rubber bushings to isolate it from bumps in the road.

 

Man that thing looks nasty, I'd test it with 12 volts first and make sure its
putting out the volume and pressure you'll need first.

You can easily make a mounting plate just like it originally come with. Its just
an L shaped bracket with 3 holes in the top that the three small bolts on top
stick through and then the bracket bends down 90 degrees and its mounted with
a couple of bolts to (usually) the left rear frame member just ahead of the
gas tank.

Also it has to mounted vertically according to the instructions.

I found a picture of what the bracket looks like at Summit:



Heres a bad picture of mine but you get the idea:

 

There is a full writeup on the installation of the Carter fuel pump and Holley fuel pressure regulator (which you will need) located in the FAQ section.
