If your not serious racing. Mechanical will work fine.

I'm leaning electric for a variety of reasons including more room and instant start. I'm looking at one pump and it's saying it works best as a pusher located close to the fuel cell. Just didn't know if putting it in the trunk would make it run hotter

Mine is also used as a pusher and it's mounted on the inside of the frame rail on the right rear so that it's at about the same height as the fuel pick-up in the fuel tank. I never noticed it getting hot when running and my speed shop guy has installed them inside the trunk mounted next to fuel cells.

Last one I saw he did trunk mounted was up on the inside of the right wheel well at the same height as the middle of the fuel cell. The lines came from the fuel cell to it and then down through the floor pan to the stock steel fuel lines underneath.

Considering selling the Barracuda to finance the other 2 projects i got sitting here. Thinking of asking too much for it ($7800) cuz I'm kind of douchebag, but if it sells i can finish 2 and start over.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of mounting them in the trunk, but some guys do it.

Most importantly (in my eyes) is to have a good kill switch system. I like using an impact (inertia) switch that can shut it down in a collision similar to what new cars use.
 
Best time to sell is when you don't have too.
If you were closer and it was anything but red I would be interested.
 
Well, I found out where my other 2 new wheels are...back ordered.

Due to ship in 2 weeks. No biggie, I can't put the fronts on until I replace the torsion bars and that won't be until April anyway.

Slant 6 auto. Cancer in rear qtrs, rockers, vinyl top (not horrible but it's there). BBP power discs, BBP 7.25 rear, v8 torsion bars, headliner/backseat/carpet are fine, front seats need recovered. Paint looks ok in pictures, not so hot close up.. vinyl top is definitely aged. Light damage to drivers side grill.. decent car but not a show-stopper..

I bet you could advertise it on Cars-on-line for $9500 and get $8500 pretty quickly. Cars are selling like hotcakes on there right now. People love a driver for under $10k that they can make a project out of.

What kind of feesdo they have? Any clue?
 
that's another thing Chris @dukeboy_318 -- different sanctioning bodies have different rules/requirements - I would think it's going to be difficult at best to build a car that will satisfy them all...
