So, I got an Airtex fuel pump: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/atx-e8902/overview/, and I was laying out the fuel filter and fuel pump layout under my 2R17, and I'd like some advice and suggestions from those of you who have installed one in your similar truck.
As I see how things are positioned in this area, fuel tank/brake master cylinder/hill holder/brake pedal/cross member, I see 2 places straightforward to place the fuel pump that should be stable enough to attach the fuel pump.
Either a long bolt and a spacer can secure the pump to the bracket that attaches to the master cylinder and cross member, I think there's even a hole already there that I think the pump can be bolted to, OR, use the bolt that attaches that same arm attached to the brake m/c to the cross member and get a slightly longer bolt instead and attach the pump to that bolt and under the cross member.
The pump and filter are too long and large to nestle closer to the frame as is considered ideal; that I can see.
Comments, places others have placed an electric fuel pump on their 2R16 or -17?
Thank you.
