Why can't you have it on the firewall? I'd go with the fenderwell, but I dont' see why you couldn't do it on the firewall. but then again I definitely don't know everything.

Odd. I've never heard of that before. First time for everything I imagine. I would check with local performance shops and or the track and ask.

i thought i remember someone telling mike (sirsureshot) that his regulator would not be track legal because he had it mounted on the firewall. i could be wrong, but i'll ask around

no fuel regulator or distribution block within six inches of front of firewall..nhra general rules. If youa rent track worried then mount it on firewall. Mount it on fender well. dont go behind louvers in firewall as this would put it behind firewall and is def not track legal.
