I do and I am sure others do as well, but its not usually a photo op priority.

Mine is mounted along the frame just as the rail straightens back out.

Hope that helps.

Here you go...the pump is just behing the axle (in the 3rd photo). It can't be mounted higher than the gas tank. The Corvette filter/regulator is forward of the pump.
Hope these help, and sorry I don't have better pics.







The gas lines look quite close to the muffler, but actually are not.

Yes, it's a stock tank/no baffle. As long as you keep at least a third of a tank, the baffle is not an issue.
Also, the sock in the stock pump pickup (intank), combined with the Vette filter, is more than enough filtering.
Some folks add another external filter before the pump (in-between the tank & pump).
I was advised by John @ Speartech that the tank sock & Vette filter is enough. Any more filtering, and you'll put too much resistance on the pump.
