I can't say for sure, but I know of one person's car which caught fire and burned to the ground for having his fuel pump that close to the battery. I can't prove that it was the cause, but highly suspicious. If you can, I'd find an alternate location.

Mine is mounted in the rear of the car, right next to the fuel tank.
