Might be a daft question but is it a good idea to have your fuel system right next to your battery?

I'm running my battery quite close to my fuel pump (either side of the wheel well) ideally is like some boots to, i think demon tweeks do them quite cheap.. Also what did you use to relocate your battery? Cheers.

Hours of loom hiding and tidying..

Ages fitting coil, only to realise king lead doesn't quite reach
So need that custom made.

Extended coil plug lead by around 2ft

Here's pic of how it finished, oh and strut brace fits now

Fuel pump has been wired in now. Fuel lines (main two, rest are done) have been sent off to have the an fittins attached as I've had enough of them. But some vacuum lines in today.
Managed to find a small enough filter, between AFM and FPR. Sits like this now.

And dump valve
bought
