I brought the same coolant expansion tank.First off, this is my first time installing ANYTHING on this car all by myself. I'm a 46 year old wife and mother and the idea of doing anything mechanical sends me in to fits of anxiety and tonight...is just proof I should NOT try to install anything else...ever again. :doh: All I wanted was to spiffy up my engine bay for the car show this weekend. :frusty:
I managed the Redline Hood Struts and only made one mistake on the battery cover but it was no biggy.
Then, came the coolant tank reservoir. addle: After multiple attempts to loosen the RIDICULOUS clamps that secure the hoses on the factory tank, I FINALLY figured out how to do it midway through the second clamp. So I get all the clamps loosened and pull the hoses off (didn't even spill any coolant, that is until my husband came in and did that FOR me :tsk: ). I put the bottom hose on the Shelby tank and that works like a charm. Put the front hose on and THAT worked fine as well. THEN...I reach for the hose to the back of the tank and... OMFG...it's TOO SHORT! :rant:
I assume it's the nipple on the left and not the one on the right? The left side nipple is the same diameter as the one on the front of the tank so naturally that's the one I should use, yes, since the hoses are the same?
When I bought this I was under the impression it fit this car but maybe not??? I've already emailed Shelby Store and asked if I can use a hose extension. Might as well ask the same question here; can I use an extension or do I have to find a longer hose?
Left the car alone somewhere ?Found a small nick on the rear bumper next to the license plate...
:censored:
Did you also get the dumbo side mirors to complete the look ?
LOL nah my wife is too good. I took everything 2 my storage unit :cheers:I think when he got the GT350 he got rid of the wife and her "stuff"
Very nice.. How much were these?
