Very pretty. Can't wait to see it in person. With that location I  
assume you have a solenoid valve on the Accusump. Be sure you install  
a manual switch to leave it closed if you need to. Some folks rely on  
the ignition switch  to control the accusump. That's fine for closing  
the valve and maintaining pressure in the accusump when you shut the  
engine off, but things happen and you can wind up with it de- 
pressurized. In that case you don't want it drawing away the lion's  
share of the oil coming out of the pump, robbing the engine of oil  
during the critical warm up period to fill the accusump back up. If  
you have a separate switch you can flick it off and on once the  
engine is warmed up and slowly rob oil to get the accusump full and  
pressurized again.
