Default Mounting an Accusump..

Hey, Dave...maybe I can help a little...

I have my Accusump mounted on the horizontal cross member, between the radiator and the from of the engine. Dennis Olthoss welded two small tabs on that cross member, and used them to mount the canister to with some aircraft clamps. The electric valve is on the drivers side of the canister, and a pressue guage on the other. I'm not sure - just don't remember - if we had to modify the Canton remote filter adapter, but I don't think so.

Plumbing is only a single hose - again, if I remember correctly - from the canister to the remote oil filter mounting plate on the same cross member.

I can check when I get back to the house - I'm in the office today - and snap a couple of pictures, if you would like me to. Drop a line and let me know.

Just FYI...I'd give Dennis O a call and ask his input. They may have devised a new mounting scheme since mine was installed eight years ago. Check out their website at http://www.olthoff-racing.com for their numbers...tell Dennis I asked you to call him.
