If you don't want it rattling around in your glove box, get a zip-tie and fasten it to one of the heater hoses.
Yes, that would still be a good fuel pump.

Cool deal, thanks all your help!
Is this adapter something that could be used for the temp sensor??

Also, I just found out that the engine

Comes with the intake NOT INSTALLED!
Can you believe, for $4K and it's not pre installed....not a big deal if I was doing the swap myself, but my truck and the engine is at my mechanics shop and I can't go install it myself....so now I have to pay him to install the intake....
