Dave and Sheri Build a 30th Anniversary MkV - Coil Covers, Heater Hose

[Dave Howard]

The intercooler tank and pump platform was fabricated from a piece of aluminum plate. It was cut to fit around the frame and was just wide enough to allow it to slide into place from the side. Tank and pump mounting locations were determined and holes drilled for fasteners.

The angled bracing of the frame in the center is not on the same plain as the main frame members so stainless steel spacers were made to go between the frame and the aluminum plate.

I elected to install rivet nuts in the frame and secure the plate with socket head cap screws.

I cut a small section of rubber hose that came with the Roush kit for the connection between the tank and the pump.

It was important to get this equipment installed before dropping the engine in, as space will be quite limited.
