well i can sort of help you in terms of wiring.
for the 12v wire you are going to have to go through your firewall. the fuel pump relay is underneath the driver side dash. you will see the fuse relay box and then the main fuel pump relay is to the left of that. it is hanging down and held on by a 10 mm bolt. there are only eight connections coming out of the back of the relay. the main fuel pump is yellow/green i think. i would check a haynes or helms manual. if you don't have one let me know and i'll look it up for you in my haynes.
in terms of ground i think you can ground it to the engine. my buddy did that part for me so i would have to look it up but it should just ground to your engine and the necessary parts should come with your kit. if you have any other questions you can im me at ud ctown on aol. good luck

so al I have to do is tap the red(12v wire) to the (farthest left /green and yellow wire) and the ground wire to any grounds ???
how do I "install" the pump, as far as cutting the fuel lines ?
I know I have to do it after the fuel filter, and afterward, I really have no clue...
I have the airtex from the Drag kit btw....
thanks for the help in advance

cut the fuel line that runs from the fuel filter to the fuel rail. The inline pump will go in between the two. The brass fitting that goes from 1/4-3/8 will go before the fuel pump, and will connect to the little stub of the original 1/4 fuel line that you left. you know what...diagram time.

Chris turbo: I got it, Thanks
but how did you mount your pump, I tried to mount it, and the banjo fitting on the fuel filter is facing the driver side so any attempt to move the pump to the firewall on the passenger side will be choking the lines since the banjo is pointing the opposite way....
hwo did you do it, is longer fuel lines the ONLY solutions ?

Chris,
Connect the port that has a + to a 12 V (positive) RED source on the battery and the port that has - to the negative port (black) on the battery.
Make sure you don't do it backward, otherwise, you'll lose power and it will ran so loud and you can not hear anything
