A sump application would be your best bet,any other setup might result
in serious starvation.
This is what i use, hope it helps.

Are you going to use stock fuel tank or fuel cell?

no, the a1000 is not a suction pump, it doesnt self prime. it has to be mounted below the fuel level of the tank

I was gonna mount it on the bottom of the car

use the upper sending unit with the line running down to the lower chassis then the pump.So technialy it will be fed by gravity cause it will be lowest point??
