Any easy ways of mounting the pump?

The pump normally comes with rubber rings with slots in - a bit of bent ally rivetted to somewhere and slotted into the rubber mount suffices. If you don't have the original mountings Pat I suggest you mount it in a similar fashion using rubber to help cushion the pump.

Make a clamp like those used for coils on real cars....

Mark - are you stalking me and my posts

Hellfire, didn't come with any rubber.

How about a big "p" type clip made from ali with a layer of foam on the inside and then boltde to the chassis?

Big P with rubber/foam sounds good

Exactly what i meant..giant p clip.

Yeah, thought you knew ....."Beanstalker"....

Solution found.

Exhaust bracket - perfect!

Can mount through any ali panel now.

Hi Pat

I would maybe put a bit of rubber in there somewhere to avoid any excessive noise / vibration, but apart from that it looks spot on.

Congrats on the new arrival by the way

Cheers Chris.

Was gonna rubber it as well.

Will be mounted on an ali panel that is only sikad (with a thick bead) in place (not rivetted) so that should add further vibration dampening.
