I have mine attached to the inside of the front wing and it works pretty good, but you are suppose to mount them close to the tank. Most people mount them where the factory fuel filter goes

It shouldn't be more than around 12" higher than the bottom of the tank, its a 'pusher' not a 'puller'.

That's where mine lives, seems happy enough. Can be noisy mounted directly to the chassis rails though, I should probably mount it on a rubber mat with rubber washers. I won't, because I'm lazy, but I probably should.
