I have had this same pump on my car for 12 years. It has ALWAYS been mounted where you see it in the bottom of this picture. Never had a problem with low head pressure. Never had a vapor lock problem with this 3psi pump. It feeds a 2.2 liter type IV with 44idf Webers. YMMV (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Do yourself a favor and get a rotary pump. The facet pumps are noisy as hell.


I used this one on my 2056:

Also, there is no real need to relocate it, you can run it in the stock location using the stock wires:

As for the fuel lines, i'm running the CFR stainless lines through the tunnel. They're a good upgrade over the stock plastic lines.
I would also advise to leave the return line connected, it will help keeping your fuel cooler.

What mounting method are you using to secure the pump to the firewall? It looks like people have used a through bolt. However, I'm not sure how that was achieved when I look at the firewall construction.
