Do you have to fab a new WS fluid reservoir....seems like you could find a generic one the right size to save you some hassles.
Thanks, and keep us posted.
Air intake is all "Frontal Ram". The OE fender source appears to be very passive in nature, as air pressure may not change as the vehicle starts moving. I have a feeling that it may (?) even create mild negative pressure during motion ( just like the "one open window" principle - "my toll ticket just flew out" experience).
My concept is that at moving speeds, the "ram effect" creates positive air pressure inside the box that simulates forced induction in the lamest of terms at best. (Nothing to lose and everything to gain)

Thanks for the advice on a generic W-fluid reservoir. Might very well do that if I find one that fits.
