Upside Down Airlift Airtank
Guys... I purposely and admittedly mounted my air tank upside down and attached it to the rear deck for aesthetics... the question is, how do I drain it now without removing the whole tank? Or are there better air tanks available with a 1/4" drain hole on the other side?

if you flip the car over, the tank will be the right direction

Drill a hole then shove a screw with a rubber washer in it.

put a tube on the drain that extends to within 1mm of the bottom of the tank. limebug and other sell a self venting dryer with a metal housing that installs between the pump and tank. that gets rid of most of the condensate.

Don't worry about it! the tank will self drain the water out once it rusts a hole in the bottom.
