Use a short rubber hose from hard line along or inside your frame to the fuel pump inlet on the engine.
the electric pumps are noisy, and create other problems and risk areas---do it like was on oem cars running carbs in the 60s and 70s---make sure your tank is vented

Jerry,really,REALLY bad advice.If you advocate rubber line over braided,you really need to sell your Cobra and drive a VW Beetle.
Electric pumps create NO bad situations.Or risks.Every car in every dealership today has an electric fuel pump.Noisy?You're concerned with a noisy fuel pump on a car that can be heard from two blocks away?
