Uniqueness is more gratifying though

One step closer to being "done" with the engine bay. Got around to installing my SxExCx Moroso PS Tank this afternoon. Thanks again to SxExCx-Sean, bigc-Chris (for the last minute help on the phone!) and caskyline-Randy for their help with this mod.

Please excuse the dirty bay, haven't cleaned it in a couple weeks.

Candelstick- Awesome lookin' bay man! Well thought out and themed! Keep it fresh man!

Take care

 

I just posted in the other thread that you posted pics... but it makes more sense here:

Marcus,

 

^Thanks Mike! Appreciate your help that day at AE when I chose the color.

 

damn i wish my waas clean like this! good job marcus!

 

Picked up my aluminum PS tank from SxExCx a couple of weeks ago (thanks for bringing it to the meet, Sean!), and finally got it installed yesterday. It took a few slight modifications to get it to fit, since my car is a 2nd Gen car with the HR motor, but it works perfectly and looks great. Here are some updated pics of my engine bay.

 

^very cool! Did it mount to an existing hole? Is it just one mounting point? If two, where is the other?

 

I used two mounting points, Sean, as it didn't seem stable enough with just one. Both holes I used are existing 6mm threaded holes. One was originally used for mounting the factory air box on the passenger's side, so this one was freed up when I installed my K&N, and the other mounting hole was one the original mounting points for the factory PS tank. I had to bend one of the existing mounting brackets on the new tank (very easy, since it is aluminum), and also had to make a custom bracked out of 1/8" flat aluminum for the second mouting point. I also replaced the existing factory rubber PC hose (that goes from the PS pump to the tank) with a slightly longer (and straighter) hose. The facotry one would have worked, but it was just barely long enough and the all the bends made it tought to work with. I got the replacement hose at Autozone for $2.99... It's a 5/8" power steering hose, Gates # AS260, Duralast Part # 115412.

Here are a couple of close up pics of the mounting points.

 

^thanks for the quick followup!

 

^ No problem, Sean... You can give me a discount on my future radiator tank if you want.
