That pump needs to be vertical, The plunger will wear on the bushing more when horizontal.
I'm going to be doing one. It's one of the more common upgrades that we really DO need to have shown in our tech articles section. In an effort to more scientifically approach the fuel inlet presure PSI question, I've asked my pump guy to do some tests the next time we have a Moose Pump on the test stand, in order that we might ascertain at what presure does the IP start to feel the effects. We know 50 or 60 PSI is definitely in the problem zone, which rules out a lot of factory pumps, but we don't know exactly where the cut-off is for a precise recommendation. We do have a fair number of members running the Holley blue as well, which probably puts things safely into the 14 PSI range without issue. The Moose Pumps are being calibrated to go with the Holley Red, exactly at 7 PSI.
Yep probably going to just put one of the sight glass style ones on it....
I have an extra sight glass I got from a vendor at infopop. Never installed it. It has 3/8" barbs on each end. $10 including shipping. If interested I can post a photo.

Transcold Carrier electric pumps. Group buy from Genlightening too. Or look for themon ebay. They show upfrom time to time. They are on the refrigeration units on most all refer trailers going OTR. They pull diesel from under the trailer at the spare tire all the way up to the top front of the rigs. Thats about a 12 ft suction pull...
What is psi rating of the Transcold pump?
