Upgrading my fuel system

I see regulators mounted on the firewall on street cars, but if you drag race it, the tech guy will gig you for it. Rules wize, it can't be on the firewall incase you lose a flexplate or flywheel, it would take out the regulator and fuel line causing a fire. Plus, it has to be shielded where the fuel line is ran under the car, in the area where the flexplate/flywheel is.
Thanks.I had forgot about that.I' moving it.I have all my fittings and fuel line.I just have it get a friend to come over to get up under the dash to take it off
