Hey all; I've been back out working on my tiico - I have a couple of questions: 1 - on the power steering reserviour; why do we have to move it? Is it because the fluid lines don't work in that orientation (have to turn corners that are too tight) or is it because the reserviour can't physically fit in its current location because the new engine needs more room there? I want to keep it in its current location. I have a different reserviour from a Quantum that has its fluid lines coming out at a better angle (they look better able to fit). If I can't have the new reserviour there can I at least leave the bracket there? I don't want to cut it off. 2 - the coolant tank that goes on the right side of the engine bay: the bracket that comes with the kit requires you to cut a piece out of the old air filter bracket. Do I have to do this or could I move the tank a little higher OR a little to the back of the engine bay? As you can tell I'm not very happy about cutting pieces off in the engine bay; I think I can get away without doing this but some wisdom from anyone who has already got their engine in would be great. I got my missing pulley from Peter in the mail today and I got all of my accessory belts on. I have to use a different sized one for the alternator - but I had one sitting on the shelf so no biggie... Email me directly if you have insight on these items. Thanks! Damian
