Hi!

I have done a couple EFI swaps on C3s over the years.

When I ran an external pump, I placed it on the frame rail next to the tank on the passenger side. I ran hard line from the top of the tank and then bent it 90 degrees to get over the corner of the tank and then another 90 degrees to get to the pump.

Ideally, an in tank pump is best, but you can run one on the frame back there. Just make sure you use the correct high pressure fuel lines- EFI runs a lot higher pressure as you know.

:)
