It sounds like you want to put the pump "up front". Our GT6 has the Facet pump mounted on a plate attached to the frame at the rear of the car. I chose the location for two reasons. First, I wanted the pump working more as a "pusher" than a "puller". Second, I wanted the pump away from engine heat. I also placed one of those glass bodied, serviceable fuel filters between the tank and pump so I could see when rust and scale were starting to plug the filter.
The old AC pumps do look cool but I chose to put a cover plate on our engine's mechanical pump boss. You can buy the covers (I believe they are the same as those used on small block Chevys) or make your own. Our cover plate is nothing more than a 1/4" thick piece of aluminum with two holes in it and a profile traced from a pump gasket then cut and filed to shape.
