Parish suggested this pump to somebody else in another thread (Thanks). I don't even have to put a gauge on the fuel rail, because it runs as good as it did before I put a stock pump back in the tank. It's Magnafuel's lowest-rated inline pump, MP-4302, rated at 1000+ HP. I found a good use for the Whipple fuel lines. I took pics of it mounted, do you guys think it looks too hillbilly-rigged?

Pin striping is for city boys, get ur self a big number 8 painted on there then put on a couple coats of Red Krylon. It would look friggen sweet dude. The whole trailer park would be jealous.

Come on guys ! I think you are being too hard on the guy.
And besides he could always cover it up w/ a singing bass.
It does look a little out of place, but if it works who really cares. Have you seen the truck intake w/o a cover?

I was proud of the spot that I found and the bracket that I made, but thought that it kind of sticks out. That's when I got the idea to get some opinions. Thanks for being honest. So I fixed it:

So I fixed it:
Actually I didn't think it looked too bad to begin with. It mostly stood out because It was the only clean part under the hood. I see you fixed that too. I think it might look a little better if you could shorten and reroute the braided lines. Asking for opinions is just asking for some ball breakin'.
I think I might use the hairnet idea to dress up my intake.
