Kinda amazed nobody makes something like this.. seems like a no-brainer safety idea.

I think that you are looking for something like a factory Ford Inertia switch. They work in an accident situation by popping up mechanically from the force of the impact and interrupting the fuel pump circuit. Just push the switch down to reset. I know on the F150's the switch was located behing the passenger kick panel. A Ford dealer should be able to help you out (here is a link that explains the switch: Inertia Swich) - and a picture ...

I have my fuel pump wired through my oil pressure switch, I don't think a motor would run upside down with a carburetor. Its also nice because when I turn the ignition switch on, the fuel pump isn't running. BTW the ford solenoid looks like a better idea

I was going to mention the Ford inertia switch. You can find them in most late 80's-mid 90's Ford cars in the trunk, usually over the passenger side wheel well. Some might be on the drivers side. It's also usually under a panel. It's not out in the open.

The engine is in.. well, almost :)

Have to re-engineer a line on the rack that is hitting my low-slung alternator. Also, and this is no fault of 21st Century, I am modifying one tube on the header to clear my steering. Their header is designed around a normal Camaro steering column and not the shot racing one I am using. Other than that the engine an trans is in and in a few days (have to go install an interior into g/28) we will finish up the install and fire it up. Only have to install the loom and run the fuel lines... easy.. lol
