Immediately it becomes apparent that the F-782C tunnel cover is not going to support the fuel pump adequately.
So I will need to reinforce the mounting to allow a more sturdy installation. Since the fuel lines are all hard lines, any excessive movement is sure to invite leaks. I began to think about how I was going to do this, lots of builders have tried various methods. I settled on keeping it easy. My plan is to support the platform with 0.063" baseplate and use 3/4"x3/4x0.063"angle. Here is a mock up to help me sort out the fit and dimensions.
Next, I rounded the angles with a router and a 1/8" radius bit. This makes for a really great fit with the tunnel cover.
