[Tigers] Alternative Fuel Pump Stock Location

[GARY WINBLAD]

I did the same as Bill in 1995.
The Purolator cube has worked flawlessly ever since, including the stock 5.0L
motor install (what, maybe 230HP?).
I used a small plastic filter on the input, probably should replace that...
The only negative is its pretty continuously noisy!

The bracket/heat shield were not included but the nipple and inlet filter and fusible lead were.  Ordered the mounting kit separately along with a spare fuel filter.   I just used marine grade fuel line to connect to the original fuel lines.
