A1000 mounting pics needed
Plumbing the fuel system and am needing pictures of a A1000 mounted external on a Chevelle/Cutlass. The tank will be sumped so if anyone has any pics of the pump that would be great.
p.s. now after reading alot of these postings....I am really thinking of selling the A1000 and -10 line and running a Tanks 255 L/PH pump and 3/8 line.
Thanks....

I was thinking of just downsizing, but I have my issues figured out and am going to use what I have, besides I am sure I will "enlarge" the motor shortly after getting everything going, so I will need the extra fuel.

The 255lph is good for 600FWHP. Using an A1000 for something under this number is serious overkill and can hurt reliability.

My A1000 is mounted to a plate welded directly to the front of the tank. If it's getting sumped anyway this would be the time. Doing it this was will cut down on any noise/vibration. The tank is rubber isolated from the car, then the pump is rubber isolated from the bracket. You can just see it in this pic.

I do plan to make a fuel map to run E-85 as it is readily available here so I do believe I will need the extra size. I am mounting mine between the tank and the rear frame. I should have it mounted this week. I will have to learn how to post a pic then! Thanks for all the input and your wides look impressive from below....
