Default Parallelling fuel pumps

pump close to the tank so that the vertical suction run (lift) is as short
as possible? The pump will have lots of head to deliver to the engine.


From the top of the tank to the bottom is about 24", so even if I put the
pump on the tank top (not desireable since that is the bilge. Tanks are
integral.) the suction life, when the tank is low, would be more than the 1
ft spec. Might work fine as long as I don't loose suction. However the whole
idea is to have it as a priming pump.
