I just installed dual electric fans on my blown 92GT and I need to find somewhere to mount the overflow jug. The fans span the entire width of the radiator core, so the stock location is not going to happen. I also have the aftercooler reservoir where the battery used to be, so things are pretty tight. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!

I got an overflow from some old toyota truck in a junkyard, and put it in my fender, works great and i don't have to look at it!

IF you do get a bottle from a junkyard make sure it's big enough, and is not white. All the bottles i found that were white were ruined by the elements and mostly the sun probably and when you hit it, they shatter....

Same here, I stuffed the stock one up into the drivers side fender. You'll need some more hose to go from the radiator to the overflow though. I do however plan to get a nice overflow can with a drain in the bottom from summit.
