Brand new to the 914 world. My car, a 74 2.0 was parked for 25 years, bought as a roller. Now missing the fuel pump( among other stuff) looks like it was plumbed for a 2 port pump anyway as 1 line to the injectors with a return line only at the end of the run, no y connector. I plan to replace all of the fuel lines so now is the time to place the pump. Seems real easy to place on firewall as lots of room there. I have read countless articles but not much recent stuff and most are vague with instructions assuming I have full comprehension of the car, which I don't. It sounds like stainless lines in the tunnel are a must, what fuel pump is suggested? Front or rear?,modify and put in tank?? Suggestions or point me to a current article. Any help really appreciated.

I took some pages out of Tygaboy’s installation for my fuel pump installation. I bought a Tanks GPA2 fuel pump from Summit and drilled a large 3+“ hole in the top of the fuel tank, directly above the sump that is in the bottom of the fuel tank. The GPA2 fuel pump slid into the hole and the bottom of the fuel pump rests in the sump. Very tidy installation. Tygaboy being somewhat “touched” did another fuel pump installation which is also worthy of a think.
