I'm currently fitting Methanol injection but I need some ideas where to fit the tank in the boot it's a AEM 1.15 Gallon tank.

Thanks

Mmm Methanol.

 

first fire seal the boot and leaving it there. 
 

I remember when Fast Carl used it.

 

spelling corrected.

OPPs Carl.

i remember him having issues with cold.

 

also remember hill climb cars running it with no radiators.

I wonder if methanol was the secret, undetectable fuel additive used by Vizard back in the day?

Host them somewhere and link. Imgur is one such place.  And makes suitable links. Or your own site?

I have actually fitted it now to the rear seat panel using 4 studs and wing nuts. Hopefully it should not be too much of a problem to take off and fill because I don't think it's somethink what's going to be filled up every week. I can still get the cap off so I could also fill the tank up with a large syringe for filling up gearbox oil or I could cut a hole above the parcel shelf.
I'll add a photo later.
