What about mounting it sideways or off to the side like AC/ALT/etc
Also, distributor-style pumps have less moving parts compared to inline pumps. Two examples of mechanical rotary pumps are the Stanadyne DB2 and the Bosch VE. The Stanadyne DB2 produces 6,700 psi of pressure, while the Bosch VE produces 17,000 psi.

Think you got your numbers a littlbe bit off.
there is plenty of guys running injectors pop tested to 2300 psi if i am not mistaken either.
Not sure where all these numbers are coming from ruegarding inline pump operating pressures. I suspect some confusion with first gen common rail systems. There are not any injectors that I am aware of that are PLN technology that pop higher than 6000 PSI. Hardly any pop above 4700. You can run a stock IDI injector with that pump, no problem. The only thing you will have to figure out is how to time it. Injectors are designed for the cylinder they go in. Not the pump that runs them. It's true that to properly calibrate a pump, the injector pop pressure has to be factored in, but that is for a STOCK application. Your pump calibration is meaningless once you go down this road.
