Default Need advice for location of fuel pump on GS frame

Looking for some help from my former GS buddies as I use the Mid America GS frame for my 71 L88 replica. I have a fuel safe fuel cell, top fed and have a inline electric fuel pump. I am racking my brain on finding a location that is lower than top of the cell for the pump and 100 micron filter and then to run the lines along the rail. I could attach it to the bottom supports of the fuel cell but then the line would have to run back up to the rail from the pump. I have a flat bar on top right in front of the fuel cell where I originally planned to locate it but not sure with it being level with the tank if there would be any problems with the pump. I have received from good advice from others on corvette forum just want to try one more time before mounting and plumbing it. I would like to run stainless along the center frame rails. Many thanks and the plate I am referring to is visible in the third pic from the bottom behind the jack handle.

One more question. Will it make a difference if I can mount the fuel pump 6 inches lower than level with the top of the fuel cell, I think I have a way to do so. Thanks
