[QUOTE="exdeath, post: 6630332, member: 56343"] I'm sure the LFP fits better than the Fluidyne... forget about the ABS, I couldn't even get the Fluidyne to sit in the lower mounts at all due to interference from the condenser lines on the upper side of the passenger side tank... and thats AFTER bending the lines and loosening the condenser and forcing as far to the passenger side as possible... Either my radiator has the mounts welded slightly off, or the mounts on my car or off... I could lower the driver side below mount level and get the passenger side in the mount, and try to lift up the driver side into it's mount, but even doing that, either the driver side wouldn't fit, the passenger side popped out, or it was under so much tension that one of the rubber bushings would pop out (usually the left side). So much for "direct fit". The LFP shouldn't be any more different than the Fluidyne as far as thickness and the ABS in the way, but the trapezoid cutouts in the tanks should alleviate any issues with actually getting the damn thing in the car first... one can only hope... All of them are twice as thick as stock, so the ABS thing and stock I/C tank are probably going to be common issues... but my concern at this point is simply being able to stick it in the car and get the mounts on... Sigh... another week of driving the 90 WHP car while everyone and their uncle picks on me at every light... [/QUOTE]
