ideally above the pump,which you wont see in the pic (,but is on inner wing next to back up power steering/hydro boost pump,mounted in n/s battery box)

tank and pump is for water/methanol injection..

vicious rumour is I have 1uzfe to go in a 90 without a supercharger, just need a miracle to get it in and running and MOT'd before show
 
tank capacity 1 gallon...

yes nos is good..its in the "boot..."
 
ns inner wing, alloy tank to follow profile, 2" deep, full width and mounts for electrics on top. still a bit of space under the bonnet.
 
Move the battery to the boot and use the space for your tank?
Or stick the tank in the boot and use a small 12V in line water pump like they do in caravans to pump it to the front?
Fooked if I know fella, I aint never seen a Classic engine bay so full of extra stuff :confused:
 
yes,,boots an idea..i suppose one way valve to stop drain back..water/meth injection has to be instant..but boot has 3rd lpg tank and nos bottle..so rather not use as is daily driver and need to keep boot area "free"..lol.

oh and yes circa 400hp.

any space behind the front bumper and route a filler nozzle up between the grille and slam panel?
 
noy really..atleast not inbetween chassis rails as thats where eas tank sits..
 
Fit a dummy snorkel use that as a tank. Or, if you are not on LPG use an under chassis lpg tank as the water supply. ?? wow project how about more info?

IF not an lpg tank I assume your car is on coils and not the air suspension of later cars so perhaps obtain the air reservoir tank as fitted to air suspension p38 cars and use that as a water tank. Fits on the chassis under the car about centre on the passenger side.

ok..she is on lpg..uses twin underslung and one in boot..also on air too,air tank under front chassis cross member..

oh she is 1972 2 door..

fanatic, what you mean about pressurise..use boost pressure to force water from tank to pump?
 
dummy snorkel interseting..i do have one,but it ruins the cars "lines" and that matters to me..lol..(thats why its been removed..it was a functional one)
