Nick,

I installed one years ago in my TR-3 with some success.  I had 
to install a pressure regulator as well because the fuel pump
 would push gas past the float.  One reason most people install
them near the gas tank is so they won't have to suck the gas
uphill.  I installed mine as a crude anti-theft device for one
of the easiest cars in the world to steal.  With the hidden shut-off
switch turned off, the car would only drive for a couple
of blocks.
