SW86 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Nice. What size cell did you get and what pump are you using? I went rci 12g with the e2000 pump into the stock harness. Maybe I need to update mine since some things have happened as well :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89eliminator Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 RCI 19 gal with E2000 pump. maybe you can help me with the pump orientation, should the side with the electrical connections be on the tank or engine side? does it matter?

SW86 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Yes it's a pusher pump. The electrical side down stream (engine side). I bought airtex and I'm pretty sure it's marked as well. Mine is mounted below the tank as close as possible to the feed ( I added a bulkhead to the bottom of the tank for better "free flow" aka gravity lol!)

SW86 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Also the first time firing it, you'll need to bleed the air from the pump forward. Just loosen the line at the pump and you'll hear it. I've had to both times I've taken the tank off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89eliminator Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 ok. thats how i have mine mounted. it did not indicate orientation on it or in the manual. also, are you supposed to keep the rubber "boot" on the pump? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you plate the frame any before putting the new mounts on? It's hard to tell but yeah it's plated. Also have a piece of solid square tube tieing the upper mounts and frame rails together.
