Like Randall, I have a small Facet pump on my TR3A that I mounted on the
frame just behind the driver's side rear wheel. I installed a shut-off
switch (with a big red knob) and filter between the pump and the tank. The
entire string of stuff is less than 12 inches in length and is easily
visible when peeking behind the wheel. I mounted the pump via elastic
bumpers, so the pump sound is audible but not obnoxious. For appearances I
kept the original mechanical pump in place (without the lever; I like
looking at the sight glass from time to time) and will install a blanking
plate between the pump and the engine the next time I'm under the car.
