A1000 delete? :D looks like a solid list. I'd probably sub a FuelLab for the A1 and add a sump

I'm in between fuel lab and a1000. Can't decide. Give me a couple of pros cons if ya can! Plan on doing a 5/8 draw straw so that I can just use the factory sender and tap into return on the sender too.

A1's are damn good pumps don't get me wrong. But you can get a fuel lab that is a diesel pump and brushless. An electric motor really the brushes are the only wear item other than bearings. There isn't much price difference between the two and fuellab sells a diesel pump now. Draw straws aren't bad just don't run them below a 1/4 tank unless you retain the factory "bowl" in the pump to help keep it submerged in fuel, that is the only real downfall to a draw straw.

Define diesel pump? Most pumps on fuelabs site are rated for diesel. In my experiences anything that will handle gas will handle diesel.

Yes they should as diesel does have more lubricating qualities than a gasoline does. However I still believe that certain pumps when diesel fuel is ran through them have a shorter life span. Maybe its just me overthinking things, because I have no hard proof to support it, but thats just been my experience.

diesel fuel while lubricative is far more susceptible to contaminates and growths like algae etc. but then again Im not a scientist or an engineer. The brushless motor wins every time in my book which is why i recommend fuelab.

mounting it on drivers side frame under the cab somewhere in between the filters. any other place to mount or other ways of mounting let me know.
Im not 100% sure what I am doing from the tank yet. Probably going to decide when I have it all apart, but would rather do a draw straw of some sorts. There is a kit with a flexible tube and a chunk of aluminum that takes the factory senders place with suction and return ports. Or I would just get a piece of 5/8" line and flare the end and put a 90* fitting on it and run my -10 from there. sump is a possibility, but ehh...dont really know about that. would rather just use the factory hole i guess.

I Personally would sump it. I love my sump in my truck. I have ran the thing below E so many times when a draw straw I would be stranded.

I would mount the pump with AN fittings going to each filter base so If you do have to change a pump your not fighting a cluster if you hard pipe it or use hose barb and have to cut the line.

I used factory Superduty mounting brackets on mine and you can't even hear them run, vibration is a killer to any electrical component so make sure to isolate the vibrations as much as possible.

I haven't looked at Marty's fuel systems in a long time but I know he has great reviews on his stuff, and I know he wouldn't sell you junk.

I don't know the viscosity off the top of my head, but viscosity at temperature is another matter as diesel fuel thickens incredibly whereas gasoline not so much.

Maybe I'll just sump it. With me, I would rather have one hole in the tank vs two. My really a reason, just my OCD I guess. Using all an fittings. Is it easy to use the factory brackets, or should I just make a bracket for it? Honestly haven't even looked at stock pump, it's gunna be down to the frame this fall, figured I'd look at it then.

Use Dennis' (strictly diesel) fuel pump bracket and wiring... Takes out the guesswork.

The bracket that Dennis sells is for the 7.3 not the 6L. I asked him about it when I got my fuelab pump from him. Gotta either modify the factory bracket or make your own.

A fuellab is about the same diamter as a factory 7.3 pump if I remember right. Just sump it and then use your factory feed line to return.

Thats what i did, but i ran -6 all the way to a tube fitting on the sending unit and used an -an plug on the factory return on the sending unit and removed all the hard lines from the frame
