Thanks for all the great info guys but... my 1 hour job just turned into a major project...My fuel pump died on me today (it was an aftermarket) and so I bought another aftermarket to install (running dual Dellorto 44's). I got up under the car to remove the old one and believe it or not the mounts were rusted so bad they just snapped right out! Rust? On a 914? OK, no problem I'll just mount it to the firewall instead. It's about then that I discover that there's not enough room to get a drill in there to tap a couple of holes. So I'm hoping one of the local clubbers can help a bro out with some simple tack welding. I'm going to fabricate a bracket that I need to get welded to the firewall to the right of where the fuel line comes out. Oh well, that's why I bought the car...for hours of fun and enjoyment.
