Default Dual Fuel pump question....

Hey I know they made a dual fuel pump hanger but, who has one that is homemade with pics to share? Im trying to see how everyone else did there or put it on the oem hanger. Also how did you get power to them. Did you drill a whole through the top gromet the power through an silicone it shut? Im just waiting to install the fuel pumps and waiting for the oil relocation kit then my car should run again after being dead for almost a year. Come on show some pics, and dont tell me to search i have already done that, an it gets old being told to.

Thanks for any info in advance

Basically, I wrapped the pumps in strips of gas tank filler hose using wormgear clamps to insulate them from vibration. Note the pumps are offset slightly to best fit into the slosh tank:



To power the second pump, I drilled a hole through the access plate and welded a small steel tube that I filled with epoxy (non-conductor). I then drilled through the epoxy and tapped a threaded screw as a feed-through terminal. Then it's just a matter of wiring it up on either side of the access plate.

^Pretty much my setup exactly.
As for the feeds, I welded two male -6 fittings on each side of the access cover and ran both feeds lines to them. Be sure to use submersible fuel line (not aeroquip pushlock). I ran both -6 fuel lines to each side of the fuel rail and used the stock feed line as the return back to the tank.

"Be sure to use submersible fuel line (not aeroquip pushlock)."

Yeah i actually welded on the bottom of the tank to use -8 from the stock lines, but im basically going to cap those off an put bulkheads in the top cover. so if in need i can always go back an run a third pump. I ran -8 from the cover into a -10 back to -8 at the rail. I did this just so i dont have any issues flowing the lack of fuel. I wish there were enough people out there to do a group buy on the dual billet adapter mvp sold.
