not interested in bling- just something that works.

Prefer to be based on Saginaw, as I have a mount I want to use.

perhaps pull the resevoir off the pump and make my own? Not sure what the suction fitting is like on the actual pump. This would be easy with a typical toyota pump.

Need the external resevoir because the mount is low on the block, lower than I can keep my cooler + lines. Also need extra capacity for the hydro assist ram.

not exactly standard 40 series stuff so i threw it here.

thanks
 
Weld a piece of round stock to the top of the stock Sag pump, thread it for an AN fitting or hose barb.. Get a remote tank and mount it where you can..
 
Get a reservoir (sp?) from a 85 Chevy G van. It has a fitting for a 5/8" hose on the top of the pump.
 
my doner 1991 Chev van had a remove res setup...can get at Autozone easy enuf...

Mace has mine now :D

Hell, just cut off the top cap-portion of a spare canned ham, use some oil-resistant hose to extend and a couple hose clamps...believe SpaceGhost ran that way for quite some time...
 
the idea to add a fitting to the top of the regular sag pump crossed my mind... glad to see its not a bad idea.

Need to make a trip to the pullapart anyways gonna try and round up an astrovan resevoir setup, if not i'll just modify the stock saginaw pump and make a resevoir out of some tube and the old resevoir filler neck...

thanks just what I was lookin for. :beer:
