It's higher then where I have seen it before (tapped water pump housing) and I really don't think it is any lower than the top of the radiator so it should be venting as good as before.
Here are some pics:

 

WOOO rice etr for pres!! thanks alot bro, that seems to be a faster way to gett hat probplem out of the way

 

Yeah, that will work. I guess any metal section in the upper line would work.

 

i just did this today, tomorrow i brace everything up

 

oh yeah forgot to update my progress on the vent tube thingy




the pipe size PN: HOK-12520HKR from summit
and the nipple thingy is PN: PRS-1046 from summit

the hose is the stock one just cut and flipped

 

i have one issue. my upper AC line wont quite reach the condenser
do i need to have a custom one made??
or can i solder in a piece to make it longer??

im a plumber so i solder copper pipes all of the time, i would assume soldering aluminum is pretty much the same

any ideas??

 

Here is an idea, wear pants when you weld. Your skin will thank you by not developing cancer later.

i think i would rather chance getting skin cancer by doing 10minutes of welding in shorts a few times a year, then to get heat stroke in the 101* florida weather

but thanks for caring

 

I just finished mine, no fancy welding but it cam out ok.




Kind of a idea of the added clearance, still lots of misc. suff in the way but you get the idea.

 

I am also getting ready to do this...I will post up my also.

 

completed the first step this weekend. i'll post more pics. the welds aren't pretty as it was my first time to weld, but they're strong.

plan to mount this in this weekend sometime

 

where did you get the pump from

 

Here's mine.

 

i bought the steup from a friend. the WP is connected directly to the radiator.

but its a remote water pump by Meizer.

can find alot of info in this thread:

finally got around to finishing the install.

 

RICE ETR, Do you have pictures of the bottom of the setup,? I like the nice clean install.

 

this is what i needed to see!

 

finished.

i still plan on cutting out the bottome radiator support, lowering the radiator 2 inches and moving forward 4-5 inches.

at this point i'll need to convert to hood pins, as the latch assembly will be gone. but that will clear more then enough room for the turbo

 

i'm going ot end up redoing mine once i get it back. i just did a quicky on it and want to make it look professional.....that and i'm bored
