Aeromotive delivery system

[2059]

I'll throw this here because it's really more a question to see how others have mounted. Using the Universal system as a starting point.

already installed the sump in the tank and ordered extra fittings to break up the primary and secondary fuel filters away from the pump. There is nowhere on the car to mount the longer horizontal filter-pump-filter stack up.

I'm curious if anyone else is using this, or similar system and mounting locations.

thanks,

I separated the filters from the pump on my Cuda. The first filter is mounted near the tank; the pump is mounted on the frame rail below the tank; and the second filter is mounted underneath but near the front of the car for easy access and maintenance. Needed the extra fittings and hose to make it work. A buddy did something similar on his Charger.
I believe the A1000 is submersible if you to get stealthy and put inside the new sump.

I would return it and get the new pump with the foam around the sump. It will work better and no slosh issues. If your using for carburetor set up a by pass for the mechanical pump and start the motor on electric pump and then run the car on mechanical with a bi directional valve.. A Return regulator will eliminate any issues of fuel vapor lock.

Not to complicate things but the best thing I did was to install a shut-off valve. You'll be glad you did when it comes time to clean your filters. I used one made by Earl's.

I looked in to the stealth systems. I liked the external better. I should be able to keep the grouping fairly close but will need to conform to the frame rail with the braided hose.

Thanks Snake, it's an EFI system. (blown, injected). Ya, I'll be using the regulator on the return side.

Good point. Didn't mention it but , yes there will be a shut off in the run.

Sounds like there's no secret/magic to this. Pretty straight forward. Thanks for the input guys.
