Default Fuel pump install question!!!???

I need to know about a fuel pump install by not droping the tank, and going through the top of the rear wheel well. My friend did it on his 94' LT1 camaro z28 and it worked on his, but I need to know if the location is in the same spot???

id just drop the tank rather than cutting into the car itself, but if you dont have access to a lift, you gotta do what you gotta do i guess

I would drop the tank. I'm not a fan of shooting sparks and pieces of hot metal right on top of the fuel tank. Plus there are a lot of fuel vapors outside the tank in the same area, it's an explosion or fire waiting to happen.

Agreed... be safe. drop the tank. Don't skimp or take any chances with your baby or your life.

I dropped the tank on mine and it only took like 2 hours to complete and that includes test drive. I wasn't a big fan of all those sparks around the fuel tank either. I would drop the rear, it's not that hard.
