Default Vertical Bottle?

I am planning on standing my bottle on end behind the passanger seat. I know I need a blow down tube but my questions is do I have to do anything with the syphon tube? I am pretty sure just put the bottom corner from typical mounting set up as the back side of it verticaly and I should be ok?

if you mount it vertically most arrange it in the car with the bottle nut facing the rear of the car IIRC

That is what I am thinking. Therefore the syphon tube is in the bottome back of the bottle. If I mount it in the truck vertical I will make sure to keep it rather full and therfore have zero problems.

I'm not sure. Haven't tried it yet since we got them. I'll see if i can have a local guy swing by to test fit it or i'll try and go see my car this weekend at the paint shop to try and fit one in there and let you know.

^ That'd be pretty nice to be able to fit two ten lb bottles in a bolt in setup. I think you could probably make a little flat bracket to attach to the antenna some how.
