Question on Methanol Tank

If I use the windshield wiper water tank for a meth system, is the tank thick enough to run an NPT tap to feed the pump? Also, what temperature sensor should I use since I will be spraying after the MAF sensor?

My ECS kit came with everything needed.

Taylor "Dallas Performance" then installed the IAT sensor relocation to detect the methanol temp just prior to the TB

In the bottom of the take I found a place were the plastic is a little thicker. So I drilled and taped it. Worked great. Good luck

Same place the alky control kit uses.

You want a Temp sensor and pigtail from any 01/02 camaro/firebird

Or an 87 GN temp sensor will work well, too.

Yes, as already covered, the W/W reservoir is fine for tapping! I would also advise you to coat the threads of the bulkhead in a methanol resistant sealant!

Do you have the part number on any of those sensors so I can order one from Gene Culley.

I've ordered the 87 Buick GN sensor and pigtail. Is the calibration for this sensor the same as the one in the stock MAF or does the table in the CPU programing need to be modified?
