The greatest advantage to having fuel pumps mounted inside the tank is,
near elimination of vapor lock from crapohol fuel. The second might be
elimination of noise from the pump, and third might be longevity of the
pump due to cooling effect of the fuel. A disadvantage might be the
difficulty of servicing the pump. Be sure to provide access to the top of
the tanks to facilitate that. Personally, I prefer pump(s) mounted in an
easily accessible cannister with the pump submerged in fuel, much like the
one Hal St. Clair built for his diesel conversion, or the fuel command
module sold as an option with an efi system that several GMC owners have
installed.

if you're going to put active components in the tanks. I did mine outside
the tanks.

Pumps are cheaper and easily replaced.
