pettit AST pics

does anyone have pics of the AST in their engine bay. i want to see where its located. i know it takes the place of the stock tank, but just want to see how each differs. also, what is the deal with the three caps for coolant. one that reads never open, another where you replace the AST, and the last all the way to the left. why is there three???

By the way, the cap on the filler neck at the front of the engine should NOT be a pressure cap, and the one on the AST SHOULD be. Just noticed this weekend somebody had reversed the two, which was making my overflow tank useless...

on a car that's completely stock, the pettit AST is in the same place as the stock AST (which non of the pictures here have shown) - it uses the same mounting location, though, you'll have to get a new nut&bolt, as the nut in the stock AST is stuck in the plastic pretty good.
