Yeah, I'd highly suggest the in-tank option. I had a frame mounted pump for my carb for a while and it was so noisy you could hear it over the exhaust. When I went fuel injection I swapped to an in-tank pump to keep the noise down.
Same here. The Edelbrock pump I bought was supposed to be "quiet". Not sure how they define "quiet" but it really was obnoxious! Put the pump inside the gas tank if at all possible.
