By the way, I'd suggest you contact MaureenM@RodgersChevrolet (she is their parts manager).

She will be able to get you those posts for the engine cover. Send her that pic you posted.

She's da bomb!

Well you must be related to her because your Da'Bomb also Terri! Thanks for all your help and by the way i got 4 of them on order. I have a whole mess to get the passengers side engine cover to fit because we plumbed the Maggie with a lot of hoses going over the passengers valve cover.

If you contact Roto-fab, they will tell you how to remount the maggie reservoir so those covers will work. It has to be moved to the driver's side. You can kind of see where it is in these pictures.

It looks like it is mounted to the middle section of the strut tower?

[Darth_Emma]

I think they made a little bracket to mount it right in front of the master cylinder.

I wish I had a better picture of it.

Me to, i will look at it tomorrow but i would have to re-plumb the hoses and relocate the pump itself down on my frame rail!

Inside above the dead pedal move the carpet and insulation and you will see your Positive Battery cable and the hole is just right above that. All wires can be fed easily through there and routed right up into the pillar for your gauges.

You said the hose connects to the Maggie on the back?

I think at idle there is a lot of vacuum so the gauge reads that as negative 20 I guess? Do you know what boost you are running currently?

I'm pretty sure it's not a good idea to put the reservoir below the intercooler...

It is below the ABS reservoir on the frame rail, that's where Magnuson says to put it.

I think Terri is talking about the resevour and you are thinking of the pump. Pump is On the frame, res is up on the passenger heads. Hers was moved to the drivers side and looks like maybe on the strut tower?

[Darth_Emma]

Yes, I'm talking about the fill cap on the reservoir. It needs to be set up high enough so that the fluid will run into the the intercooler (and into all the lines). That rascal can be hard enough to fill as it is.

I think i am going to sell these covers from Terri and go with these covers and coil pack covers? Tell me what you think!
Got some video coming your way real quick!

Yeah i was just talking about having to move both because the pump is also on the passengers side, reservoir has to be higher on the body than pump and intercooler.

Those look good... Maybe I should buy the rotofab covers from you then
