Default Where do you mount an electric fuel pump?

Have a Holley Red I want to mount, and I'm curious to see what other Shell Valley owners have done. The outlet of the stock tank is so low that I will have to make a rise up and over my differential in my tubing before it will reach the pump. The pump will have to mount on the frame rail just behind the drivers seat in order to keep the inlet side of the pump at the same elevation of the tank outlet. This is on the other side of the differential from the tank, creating the need for the rise and drop in the fuel tubing. There is no other solution to the Shell Valley design that I can see. I am hoping that the pump will create a natural siphoning action, and will draw the fuel up and over the differential. Anyone out there have any comments or suggestions? What did you do to solve this problem?
