I couldn’t find it in the tech article. Is there a replacement reservoir I can use for my explorer serpentine setup? One that I can buy new. The one I have is not really nice looking and has dirt inside.

Ebay may have NOS ones.

Folks on here were using Ford Superduty reservoirs that could bolt to your firewall next to your master cylinder.
They were finding new ones of those on ebay too.

Have not seen any NOS on EBay. I tried cleaning up the one I have but the black staining is stubborn.

I had one made. It turned out very nice, think I found him on this site, but he runs an eBay store, I’ll look.

That’s great looking! Let me know if you have the link to this guy.

I am in the market as well and I sent him a message through Ebay this morning... Hoping he is not shut down due to the Covid19 :-X

Those look great, Are they a direct bolt on for the serp swap with proper hood clearance?

I had some email contact with Jamie (jac_specialties@yahoo.com). He needs details of your build and can customize to fit your needs.

Since I am still building I have to wait and see what space I have between the bracket and hood.

From Duffy's build... This is what I am asking for with a 1" body lift. Standard motor mounts

It is already set back away from the hood brace, no need for offset bracket

Apparently Jaime has a newer design with a 4" tube instead of a 3" tube.

The finishing looks kind of rough, maybe because it was a prototype?

His welding and stainless work is food grade and amazing. I don't know what you mean by rough.

Jaimie will make it anyway you want, dual hose, single, AN fittings etc...

I have one as well, beautifully done, very solid and well built with perfect welds.

His skills look amazing. No way doubting that.
