Default Latest engine bay pics

Along with the hydro-dipped parts I bought the Moroso coolant overflow tank, fuse box cover and power steering tank from JEGS. I finally got a chance to get them installed and took a few quick pics in my garage.





Look at the first pic and notice how the power steering tank is not perpendicular to the front of the car like the coolant overflow tank is. I went to the American Muscle web site and looked at the same tank installed on other S197's like this...



But I don't know what year that S197 is.

Does anyone have any insight as to why my tank is cocked to the right? Is the fan cowl different in the 2009's as opposed to other years. I know it's installed correctly because there is a tab on the bottom of the tank that fits into a slot on the radiator cowl.

Same problem with my 09. And I also have to wrestle with a reversed alternator (because of the E-Force) that interferes with the tank as well.

Looks awesome, if I may give a suggestion to "perfection in progress"
Find some strut tower covers, maybe something like this...
