I've never used the pump inside a box, but don't you need some sort of (thin) gasket to seal the inside to the box as well? Or are you gonna use liquid gasket maker?
Are you just taking the 1 inch head outside the box?
Just measured mine on a March 809HS.
Screws that mount the 1 inch head are 5/32" 32 and 1" long. They look a little short on mine, only go in the housing about 1/8 inch, with another 1/8 inch spare. Your Chugger screws may be different.

Actually ours are 8-32x1"
so if you wanted to put it in a box and needed longer screws then go with 8-32 x 1-1/4" should be more then long enough
