Default Pics of Meth Kit install

Trying to figure out where to install my meth kit - can some of you post pics to give me a better idea? I have a LT1 engine bay with a Vortech and its pretty tight already!

Can you throw up a pic of your engine bay. I have a few ideas basing it on my procharged C4 setup, but I would need to see the differences on where your blower resides, as I am unfamiliar with the Vortech setups for the C4...

I have always wondered why the windshield washer fluid reservoir can't be used as a jug for a meth kit.... I haven't noticed but is there a dummy light for the low washer fluid

I use the WW res for mine. I have the pump and controller on top of the radiator shroud. It would be nice if it had a WW low fluid dummy light but I just check it periodically. IT doesn't go through all that much and that is with 17 gph of nozzles and me flooring it all the time.

Not sure if I will go the windshield wiper route though with my C4, I went the coolant reservoir route in my turbo charged 3rd gen and just relocated the coolant reservoir by the fmic. Very nice engine bay by the way...

Here is mine. I buttoned it up today for anticipation of the dyno coming up soon. I am running a AEM progressive controller mounted in the center counsel.

Hi Guys ! If you go to my website (BlowerWorks.net) then to the 'Downloads' section you'll find my GEN IV IG for 1985-89 and 1990-96 Vettes.

Great pics for much including the WW reservoir. The problem with using the WW reservoir is slosh and air when reservoir is less than say 1/2 full. The G forces move the liquid away from the PickUp. Bladder is best way or remote tank as many here have done.

Hope this helps - greg
