Bottle Mounting
Ok I want to mount my bottle in the back hatch on the flat peice before it goes where the T-Tops are stored. My questions is how much space is there between the sheet metal and the gas tank? I want to make sure when I mount the bottle I don't punchure it.
I know this is far from the best spot to mount the bottle due to the heat from the sun and the bottle preasure but what can I say? I like to show off. |
there isn't much space an inch or so maybe
|
You could always be like me and mount it like so...

That mount looks like it fits like a glove. Where did you get it?

looks nice phate. i am planning on mounting my bottle mounts(they look similar to yours, are they jegs?) right to the floor in that same spot.lol, i was thinking of buying on of those or makign one like you did but i think i might just drill and nut and bolt them down. idk tho. chad ill ask my friend how much space he had, cause he did the trap door fuel pump method, i forgot how much space he said there was tho. ill find out and let u know asap.

Problem with direct bolting it up 69z, is that its nowhere near flat, and the surface area of it isnt wide enough to support the brackets, hence why I made that peice.
If I were to do it again, i'd get one of those really expensive metal bottle holders to put on top of it to make it look better ;) PS - Not only is that mount bolted to the body, the bottle mounts are bolted to the adapter and through that into the body too lol. My bottle isnt going anywhere. |

well like arch said probly an inch or so. i want to see pics asap when you put it in chad

On my car there was only 3/4" of an inch or so- and thats being generous. I would say don't go any lower than 1/4" below the lowest part of the back 'hatch'. If you can mount on the upper ridges you will have more room below obviously.
I can go out and check for sure if you want. But keep in mind that every car might be a little different. |
If you mount it like phate did. its a 2 for 1. nitrous and a arm rest for ur backseaters. win win situation
