    Accusump installed on B motor

    I thought I would share a few pics for future reference for other members. I used Riv nuts in the inner fender well to mount the band clamps and Aeroquip fittings. It’s a 2 quart system. Note; I have a Victor intake on and I have the rear of the hood kicked up about half an inch. Andrew
