While I was putting in my SS fuel lines I figured that I might as well relocate the pump to the front trunk at the same time. I moved mine next to the right headlight - the location recommended in the Automotion kit. I'm not entirely happy with this location. It does make it easy to change the fuel filter, but it leaves exposed fuel hoses in the front trunk and is quite vulnerable in the event of a front-end collision. I've acquired a 75-76 fuel-pump "blister" and am planning to relocate the pump again to the 75-76 location - under the left side of the fuel tank. If anyone has measurements on exactly where to cut the hole, let me know.
Here are some pictures of the current pump installation. The first shows the "Y" connection under the fuel tank. This later came out when I discovered that my original pump didn't work and I upgraded to a 75-76 pump. Attached thumbnail(s)
