power for front mounted fuel pump

I am converting my 73 from FI to carbs and would like to mount a fuel pump under the fuel tank. Is there elec. power up front I can use or do I need to run a wire from the relay board? How much room is under the tank?
Cheers, Elliot

There is room under the tank, check the tech article here on Pelican. You will need to run the wires from the old pump up from the engine compartment to the new pump, at least he power the ground you can run from the pump to to anywhere you can hook on fro ground

You won't have the ECU to trigger the pump any more. So you'll want to run "switched power" to it so that the pump runs the whole time the ignition is on. You can run a wire from the fuse box, which is pretty easy.
