Can somebody tell me if it's allowed to have the fuel pumps and filter in the car? (where originally the battery is)

Turn it around, why do you want to?
I think it sounds like a bad idea  Undecided

There is no rule that allowes this , all fuel lines must be outside the driver cabin

In the msa regs it says it's ok but not sure for what as rally cars have lines inside the cabin to protect against rocks and stones and all filters etc have to be covered.

C(b)15.1-3

All vehicles MUST -

Have any fuel lines passing through the
driver/passenger compartment protected and, if nonmetallic,
to be internally or externally metal braided
hydraulic pressure hose or fuel lines complying with
FIA specifications.

If it was me I would rather run the fuel line inside the tunnel , fuel pump as close to fuel cell as possible and fuel filter/regulator  as close to engine as possible. It is what I have done .  Mike

In dragracing it is not allowed . Tunnel is the best way and fuel pump next to the tank
