Can I replace the coolant reservoir for on of these? If I run the same psi cap (15 psi iirc). If so any install tips? If not could you please explain why? Thank you ahead of time.

Quite sure the stock reservoir is mounted up high for a reason. I'll let the experts explain why.

I believe it needs to be higher than the highest coolant passage in the motor. Correct me if I am wrong. I am just looking for a smaller reservoir that I can relocate. It get right in the way of the dual Alt set-up I am building.

Dual alternators? Do you realize you can get one good one up to 400 amps? If you want the weight, complexity, cost, and problems of 2, go ahead.

I have 2 mechman Ad244's that have 350a output and 160a at idle. I am a car audio freak and need alot more power. Spliting up the power on 2 puts less stress on them and they will stay cooler and last longer. And done right there is no problems.

yes it can be done, he said he had to hold them up to bleed the air out then everything worked fine

Thanks for the info. I checked out that wagon and it is sick.

The one problem you might come across is that your low coolant light will illuminate on your dash since the factory one has a sensor. I just replaced my coolant reservoir with a new stock one after I continued to have overheating issues even after replacing the cap, then thermostat and the waterpump. But you can always unplug the bulb in the dash if you have a stock dash.
