Mike,

It looks like one of the two bottom ports will have to be capped, although I cant tell by looking at the pic, but it would appear that one already is capped with a steel allen (which will rust and leave rust stains under it).

I cant see how the interior of the can is configured or ported. If it's set up correctly (both of the incoming breather ports will have a tube going to the bottom of the tank and a baffle around the K&N filtered "breather" port), you might be able to get away with attaching the breather where you have shown. You can try it and see how it works, but ideally I'd want the breather up above the cap as I outlined above.

For mounting, you can machine some brackets out of aluminum. For quick and easy you can just screw some brackets to the boat and use a couple of SS hose clamps around the housing to secure it.

Anyone have a truck w/ a 100-150gal saddle tank for a fuel filler. I need to pump fuel into the boat, but these are much easier especially on the back of pickups....PM ME if anyone does..

A friend of mine had one, but he's not available until the weekend and I'd like to get this done before then if possible.

It'd be a huge help!
