I need to relocate the power steering reservoir. I am installing a FAST intake and 90MM throttle body. The throttle body needs to be rotated 180*, putting the motor on the drivers side. Any thoughts as to where to mount the reservoir?

You dont need to relocate the P/S resv with a FAST intake and 90mm TB.

I'm running a FATS 90 with an LS2 TB, and the P/S resv is in the stock location.
If you are running an LS2 TB, you run it with the motor on the passenger side.

i agree

I have an A&A bracket with a D1SC the LS2 TB motor will not fit in the standard config with the motor on the passenger side. The TB motor interferes with the bracket.

Flip the throttle body upside down

0Jeff @ TPE

By flipping it upside down, that puts the motor on the passenger side. This is his problem.. If he puts it the other way, the motor hits the P/S resv.

Hmmmm, You may need to find a pic of someone who got the same configuration.

glennd

Yes you understand the problem.
One person emailed his solution, which is mounting it just forward of the windsheild washer tank. The other route looks to be that I could mount the bracket in the same mounting holes using 2, 3" inch round spacers, moving the tank forward of the motor on the T/B.
Thank You Glenn

Yes you need to install spacers pushing the PS resorvoir forward. Andy at A&A told me this, works like a charm

glennd

do you what length spacers?

NemesisC5

I don't remember...the reservoir just needs to be moved forward out of the way with no specific alignment since it is only a "remote reservoir tank"

Call the guys at Magnuson. They have a bracket that mounts the PS resevior on the passenger side head. I used it when I upgraded to the 90mm TB for the maggie.

If I remember correctly when I put on the BBK throttle body it also needed to have the PS reservoir relocated with spacers supplied by BBK in the Kit. They may give them to you or let you know their dimensions.

A&A did it like that for me as well, and yes seems to work fine.

Matter of fact I still have that 90mm relocation bracket. I dont use it because I built a bracket and mounted mine to the bolt that goes through the tensioner. I will give it to ya for whatever shipping is if interested let me know.

TYSON1997

This bracket mounts on passeneger side head.

Tyson: thank you for your kind offer. I ordered longer metric bolts and some 2 1/2" spacers today, so that I can use the existing bracket and mounting holes. This should move the tank forward enough to clear the rotated T/B. I have to admit that I do not understand where there would be a place for the tank on the passenger side. The supercharger covers all the space in front of that head and I can not see where else to loacate it on that head. I believe I have a solution in hand.
Thank You Again, Glenn
I have found 2" spacers with 120mm M10X1.5 bolts and notching the bracket works fine.

TYSON1997

Good luck hope it works for ya. Let me know if you end up needing it anyways.

Who was this that emailed you? Interested.



Relocating it to the other side is just not working. I would like it to disappear up into a fender or something but in front of the washer tank is another idea and it keep is above the pump.

glennd

Sorry I can not tell you. I have cleaned out my email and I no longer have that info.
I am quite happy with 2" spacers 3/4" dia. and 120 mm long bolts and a new peice of hose that is prebent. I went to the local CAP and picked out a preformed hose.
This works well. The other thing is Tyson made a generous offer with a bracket for relocation.
