So I have this 2.7 that I need to see if it starts. IF it does start, I need to start thinking about the oil tank. The one in there is a 911 tank and it's cut into the trunk, which won't do. I have heard of others putting the tank in the front trunk. I have also seen repo oil tanks, but those are $$$.
Anyone have hints or tips for this. I am just trying to get an idea of what I am looking at. Thanks! |

I would also opt for a tank in the stock location, the engineering is already done for you. Keep in mind the the extra cost of oil lines back and forth can be expensive if you're using Aeroquip braided line of the corrrect size (-16 is recommended, -12 is marginal).
However, there was someone who made a tank that fit in the area where the battery usually sits ( I seem to think it was Beach Boys Racing or one of their friends from out in CA) that seemed to be a pretty neat solution as well. |
