   i personally wouldnt run pipes like that round the rad. surely you can fit it in a better position easily.

   yeah needs to be shorter then that or may cause crank case breather trouble, also i would get some braided hose as the clear stuff will look horrible after a few weeks

   thanks for the comments. there is not that much room for the tank behind the passenger headlight, i have tried loads of ways to get it to fit. not bothered about the hose thb, at the end of the day its just a car and im not too bothered about the looks. im a bit thick, but why would it be a problem where it is at the moment? but as i said at the top, it is only temp until i get some sort of bracket made and find somewhere to mount it. any answers are great. thanks.
