Fuel pump/exhaust pipe

How much separation should I have at the pump it's 89 e250 efi so has its own jacket (rubber insulation with heat shield) I have about 2 1/2" at the close point to the exhaust pipe bomb


So next question separation for the surge tank/fuel return I have 3"

Or should I use a shield

Hay, Roy

Now that I see the photos, I have to agree that you have plenty of air space - no shields needed.

Let's get together for breakfast soon.
