Default LT1 "trap door" location? where to cut?

I am interested in installing a walbro pump on my lt1 and had run across a write up for the ls1 on how to cut a trap door in the rear and drop the pump in... however they said it is a little different on the lt1 and in a different location. Does anyone have a write up or pics of the correct way of doing this for an 95 Lt1?

I went by these three websites. Make sure you have a good set of metal sheers and possibly even a dremel with good metal bits. It took me about an hour or two but I struggled on the quick connects.

Hope this helps!

I used the above install guides, get a fuel line disconnect tool if you haven't done so already. I still havent covered mine though.

Come on people.. think outside the box, literally..
Instead of struggling with the Quick-connects for a couple of hours..why don't improvise on their shitty design and cut it like this..

It's all under the Carpet anyways..
And this took me all of 45 min..

Which Walbro kit did you guys get? the 307 or 340? And did you buy the extra $80 harness that increases the volts by 1? I am going to run this pump on a stock lt1 with an s-trim blower making around 8psi... what do you guys think?
