What expansion tanks with rotated setup and rotated manifold

https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...8838b4b073.png
Is anyone running a standard header tank in the standard position whilst running a rotated turbo and rotated manifold? I’m sure I’ve seen someone that has done but I can’t seem to find it. Currently I have it mounted on the middle of the manifold at the back but the cap is accessible through the scoop and it just looks a mess.

Im after some examples please.

I did look at the killer bee ones but they are ridiculous price for what they are.

That's a nice looking bay. I did think of up there last time but my metal tank is too big I think.

Relocate your wiper washer to boot or something and mount it there?

Nice inlet and fuel set up �� Pipework Looked neater in mine for some reason.
I had my expansion tank bolted to the strut brace some pics at the link below

never thought of that. I might have to stop being tight and just buy the killer bee one.

thanks. I did think of up there but looking to keep the pipework to a minimum. As you say it doesn’t look very neat so trying to tidy bits up as I go.

I built my own twin header tank set up they are proper swirl tanks, they allow the system to self bleed when filing I just pour in one tank and that's it no mucking about trying to bleed.

Also mounted to the strut brace

No it used to have one but temps would rise slowly but steady when on track at high BHP. It's now got a process west v-mount system works so well water temps flat line at 82 on track oil max 94 and last track day charge temps were 21!!!
