Fuel pump question for the V8 guys, what type and where do you mount?

I'm planning out the surgery on the car and basically am making a paper outline of what goes where (and what gets cut)...

Thanks,

Bill P.

Hey Guy!  Nice of you to chime in!

Any clearance issues with a stock fuel pump location?  That is a stock one isn't it?

Thanks,

Bill P.

That's a stock (like in cheap) Chevy pump. No clearance issues at all. Since taking the picture I did put a short section of foam rubber pipe insulation between the pump and the hose to reduce heat transfer, not that it was a big deal. Engine block gets hot anyway.
Also, I wrapped the headers. Keeps the heat down and lots quieter.
