Hello Roman,

Actually, I didn’t have that much space to begin with and I think my engine bay isn’t bigger than the LC so everything I did can be easily done on an LC or Rover with hand tools and little elbow grease.

I modified and relocated some stuff in my engine bay to make room for the York compressor and some other extras. I modified the battery tray to hold 2 batteries more efficiently and welded to it is a small bracket to mount a second high performance MSD coil. I relocated the air box to make room for the York compressor and removed the jack to the back and in its place went the air tank. Also right next to the York on the right fender I made a small aluminum shelf to which I mounted the fuse box, a second small electric compressor to adjust the Rancho 9000 shock absorbers and an MSD 6 ignition module. I can get you pictures if interested.

My York doesn’t consume oil; it just spits it out as soon as I pour it in. So I can’t give you any 1st hand experience on the consumption or the lubrication passage trick (I’ve heard of mixed results from this trick but mostly positive). So I end up pouring oil in the compressor once a month or so with the outlet disconnected to catch the excess oil. Even though it ends up with little oil, It works flawlessly. That’s what I love about the York; it just keeps on working no matter what .
