This is where I mounted mine, used existing mounting holes. Pipes have since been changed for high pressure ones, these were no good.

I got the tank off ebay, was around £35, it looks identical to the one Moto-Build offer for around the £70 mark! Bracket is home made from 16swg ally.

as requested here are the pics of both catch tanks fitted to mine.

the one on the front left is connected to the larger of the two hoses and the other one on the bulkhead is connected to the smaller hose.

hope this helps.
