Fuel pump/fuel filter placement

[IL duster]

I have a 71 Duster that I again will be working on this weekend. It seems to never end! I have the fuel tank all cleaned and back up where it is supposed to go. my question is where do you all have your fuel pump mounted, electric fuel pumps that is. I have a Carter electric fuel pump, and a Fram canister fuel filter. If you have pics that would be great if not then if you could describe where and how you mounted it that would be great. any help would be most appreciated!

Good luck if you have dual exhaust. I still can't find a good place to mount mine, so right now I have it tucked in underneath the pass side seat, which is a real pain because it's LOUD, but once I tie my frame rails together I'll get it more towards the back. I just didn't want the fuel pump being the lowest thing to the ground and wanted it protected.
Ideally it should be mounted as close to and lower than the tank, but with dual exhaust its real hard to do that.

Wow now that I read my post, it sounds like I have it inside the car... no it's underneath the car! :salute:

I've got a carter elec pump mounted in the same place as AdamR. I couldn't find a better place.
