wash the tank with warm sopay water.. then to be sure, fill the tank with water (a little below the level of the welding) to reduce the airspace.... no air = no explosion

How do I know where to mount the fuel pump/baffle
Is it really that simple, just cutting and welding, running lines and electricals?

you may not need baffle... or can fit a small can baffle around the pump itself.
i used the ring off an AE86 tank, welded it to a KE20 tank, and then made my own pump hanger bracket.
easiest way is to get a hanger assembly from an EFI car, change the bracket length, and install in your tank....
