Facet fuel pump

I have seen sense and now have decided to keep the car, which brings me on to the idea of fitting a Facet fuel pump as so many of you have. I want to locate the pump at the tank within the boot so that i do not have to retro fit fuel lines up front. I intend to keep everything original under the bonnet and of course remove the lift pump to blank it off. I will need to then fabricate a joining pipe with flares etc in order to fill the gap between pump input and output. Now, the information i need is in connection with wiring, fuel cut off device, pump location etc.. Could anyone please provide me the neatest solution with a breakdown of procedure and maybe a schematic diagram for wiring?! I believe V.I.P's had pump in boot and i would like to duplicate that.
Many thanks

P.S. Mango headrests anyone???
 
Glad you decided to hang on to it, where were you ever going to get another one like it?

As for the pump it's not my area of expertise but the NADA cars have a rear mounted electric pump I think. And to wire it up I would use an SD1 V8 oil pressure light switch and wire an ignition controlled supply through that, so if you do have an accident and the engine stops the pump is shut off, and a secondary supply from the ballast terminal on the starter so the pump works when the engine is cranking before the oil pressure has built up. Bypassing where the mechanical pump was and blanking the hole should be no problem. Can't think of any more than that for the moment.
