Pump & Filter Mounting?
I am making a ali shelf to down on the bottom chassis rail next to the tank.
I need some brackets/clips to mount the pump and filter. I was thinking of using silicone hose and home made ali clips.
Is there anywhere I can view/buy ready made items?

pump would usually use little bobbins:
 *
filters are usually small and light (plastic) so as justr connected and held up by the hose.
* I made my own by welding up penny washer to bolts and using PU stuff in between.

Where did you get that filter?
I've got the same pump and used the clamp for a coil to mount it.

I used large P clips (rubber lined) to clip the pump to the chassis. Works a treat and saves some weight (says he with ye 'olde Pinto ;-))

I used jubilee clips, with filter wrapped in rubber.

I think I have the same fuel pump. I used a pipe clamp I found at work, its just the right size and has a rubber sleeve. I can probably
"locate" one or two more clamps if you want one 
 
fuel pump and clamp
I tried the rubber mounts but the ones I bought from RS seemed a bit too soft so had some ali spacers made up instead. Not mounted my fuel filter yet,
I found one on ebay with 12mm in/outlets which comes with its own bracket.

Same pump for me, I used the clamp from an old HT coil and sleeved the pump with rubber from an old inner tube.

Lee, your mount looks like the exhaust clamps you used to get on old Vw's, just an idea for those looking for one.
Here is one on ebay.
