Mike , You will get better pumping efficiency if you keep the pump at or near the lowest possible point. just my .02

that is the lowest point. Right now the A/C condensor is being used as the lower cche :lol:

anyway...as long as all the air is purged out of the system, it really shouldn't matter where the thing resides.

Mike, are you going to run both the feeds and returns thru the inside of the fender? It was tuff but I was able to get them thru the drivers side and down thru / past the abs unit. Won't know how much room between the brake booster and cylinder head until I get the motor back.

Re: Relocated aftermarket IC pump

on my 92 Ty, i have 1 line going through the passenger fender, and one going through the drivers fender. That won't stay like that for long though, becuase i intend to go to an a/a intercooler on that truck.

The pump pictured is a different story. I only ran the 1 line through the fender as shown. The other line runs under the battery tray, along the fenderwell, and then up under the upper IC to where it then connects (yea it runs fairly close to the downpipe at one point, but i haven't driven the thing enough to really test out if that affects anything at all. I didn't have another hose that would let me route it any other way on hand either, so i just routed it as described.

this is where the lines run to. As you can tell between this and the other pic, the pump really is at a low point.

I installed mine in that location, but I used massive hose clamps and fastened the Shureflo to the Bumper support directly above your bracket. Then made a sheet alum. shield to protect from tire/debri. Works well and the shield hides it from view...looks stock

Re: Relocated aftermarket IC pump

Nope it's pretty cheap, depending on how many feet at a time that you buy. I think that the 1/8 size is like .32 per foot. I'm in the process of doing my entire engine compartment.
