Mounting Swiftech 650

[rsgunter]

Does the 650 pump have to mounted right side up? I think when I mount I may even mount it sideways, I dunno yet but I need to know my options.

Also in the manual it says "In general, we reccommend you mount the pump on the bottom of the case" or something close to that. Why does it matter if you have fluid getting to the pump?

Thanks!

The pump is built to run in a certain orientation, changing that can often shorten the life of the pump and lead to sudden failure.

As long as the inlet isn't pointing down it should be fine.
