ZEROED Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Need some installation advise. I have a 2007 Shelby GT-500. I purchased a Roush Racing larger inter cooler tank P/N: 13108D080-BA from Raven Racing. This larger tank's water exit line comes out the bottom of the tank, where the OEM tank's came out the side. From visual inspection it doesn't look like the hose can be rerouted to fit into the bottom. I could be wrong, but do not want to start ripping into things without some input from you all. Need some help. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

54First Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 Careful routing of the hose, without cutting, will work. I've been using mine on my 2008 for several years now. One more tip. Don't cut the stock inlet hose. They're godawful expensive if you ever need it. A piece of straight hose will work. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lower pre-curved H/E tank hose is approx. $85 from Ford. R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZEROED Posted May 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Steve, Generally, how did you reroute your inter cooler tank exit hose. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
54First Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 I can't answer that. It was five years ago. But I remember spending time trying several different paths through the cables and hoses until it worked. The bend has to be really gentle. Now that I think about it, is there a bend molded into the factory hose at the top? I think I used a straight piece that came with the new heat exchanger. Or I might have bought an extra length of 3/4" hose. I just know I didn't want any splices to disturb the flow. Sorry if I was misleading.
