  • EFII Fuel Pump Module in a Patrol ---- location??

    Curious if anyone has a fuel injected Patrol and the EFII fuel pump module. Trying to figure out where to best place it. My initial thoughts are to locate it on the forward cabin floor, aligned with aircraft longitudinal axis between the pilot's legs/rudder pedals and forward of the fuel selector valve. Then make a cover tunnel box (think transmission hump) to protect it. I think I can house the filter and pump there which would facilitate filter servicing. Let me see your examples and hear any thoughts. Always appreciated.
    Bearhawk Aircraft would like to know what you guys are doing with the electric boost pump and Patrol model airframe. Thanks!

    I mounted Johan’s mod 5 pump on the tunnel bulkhead with a .063 doubler. Should work on a Patrol.

      Steve W I think the Mod 5 has larger physical space available? Seems I recall trying to place the fuel pump module there, but wouldn't really fit. I'll revisit once I get back in the workshop. Thanks for posting the pics, that's a nice install and I appreciate your time to post and reply!

        Think the tunnel bulkhead is about the same depth but shorter of course on the patrol. If you have the same pump, it shud work
