Hellcat Pump Install

Has anyone installed the hellcat pump in their stock pump bucket? If so, do you have any pics or a description of exactly what you have to modify on the bucket to make it work? I would really appreciate it. My car is a 99 FRC if that makes a difference.

What are you using? I know the stock bucket can be used, it just has to be modified.

Ok, I think I figured this out. I was at first thinking oil pump. Then washer pump, then it dawned on me it is probably the FUEL pump. Is this done to support forced induction and/or E85? Just curious and trying to learn something.

The sending unit still goes in the same place as it did. The pump and the bucket have nothing to do with it

Ok, so what is the pump attached to? Typically from what ive seen, people modify the bucket to attach the pump.
