Is that a pump on the bottom of the tank?

No that is a rear sump. The pump is mounted underneath the bed. I will get some better pictures when I pull the bed next weekend.

I would recommend two sumps one in the rear and another foward. I ran into a problem with my setup when I only had the rear pickup. I connected the two with a y. That way the pump will always have fuel to drink during acceleration or stopping. The way I have it now with two pickups, front and rear still sees issues when tank is under half. I understand that the sump will hold a small amount of fuel in it, but that pump will suck it dry in 1 second and motor will stall. I know it's a pain and more money to put another one in, just my suggestion after dealing with this myself. Does anybody else have input in this area? I'm not 100% sure because mine did not have the sump, it was just a pickup.

I have not thought about that yet. I want to get it running and driving and see how it goes. I think I am going to run a small pump in the stock bucket with a y. Put the sumped pump on a hobbs switch. I think that would work the best.
