Was, gonna venture in to the stu mod. I was looking for pics, or ideas of ones that work. I know there's some smart guys, that made ones that don't leak lol, so pics or parts list thanks.

 

whats the stu mod?

 

Larger res, for sc coolant.

 

here's what I made

 

how do you hook it all up?

 

word thats decent

 

i only see one 3/4in line connected there though, look more like an the option b setup than the stu mod,
in the stu mod, the larger resevior is connected in line with the rest of the coolant system, and there is a like going into and out of it.

 

One problem with that one my hood wouldnt close . I went down the same road u did many connecters and parts later you can just buy it from stu and save yourself the headache just my 2 cents.

 

It looks to me like there is another line comming out the bottom. I didnt see it at first though.

 

the other line is coming out of the bottom, you just can't see it in the pic. I used Stu's instructions just used a different tank.

I believe the upper hose goes to the pump, while the bottom hose connects to the intercooler.... it's been a while and I don't have the balt anymore. This replaces the stock filler neck and with the tank I used it triples the amount of coolant in the system.

I wasn't sure it would fit either, but the guy at the parts store let me take it out to the car and yeah, there's not much if any room between the cap and the hood but it fit and never gave me any problems or the guy I sold it to after I wrecked my car.

 

might be my rk sport hood could be the problem but i tryed everyway i could to shoe horn it in there with no luck

ive since bought an all aluminum from vulcan i believe is the name of the comp ive been meening to shoot some pics and post it

 

that thing puts my handywork to shame

 

PM me for details

 

mabye, but im sure yours serves its purpose

 

Ark, do you have any part num for tank? Also any one else have any different ones. One random ? What's the boost diff between 2.8 and a 2.85 thanks.

Any one

 

i dont think there would be much of a boost difference there mabye 1/2 lb

 

As far as saftey then it be better to run a 2.85 then?

 

sure. i run a 2.8 w no problems. just make sure you get tuned for it

 

sub'd

 

i have the vulcan tanks, they are sick but wicked has a nice setup because you can use it as an icebox, all in all spend the extra dough and get an aluminum tank.

 

no part number, but both Advance Auto and Autozone carry the exact same thing, it's just a radatior overflow tank. The bracket comes with it, I just cut and bent the arms to fit the option b studs.
