Cummins R2.8 Fuel Filter locations

The Fuel Filter / Water Separator that comes with the engine is quite large...

Besides the bulkhead, is there any other place to mount it in the vertical position. I really wanted it to be tucked under the frame rails.

I've seen them mounted horizontally, but that pretty much defeats the purpose.

Td5 location on a 110 works for a 90 too if it has a rear tank l. Next to the rear spring perch on outer frame

You can see mine in this picture. Not on but very near the bulkhead. As I learned by the side of the road in Texas a few months ago, it's a fairly convenient place if you need to prime it...

... Do I spy a Tuner?
You do; good eye. It's from TDI-Tuning.com. It makes a noticeable difference for sure. To be frank, coming from a 19J, Level 1 (out of 7, ie stock) is transformative. I haven't really put the tuner through its paces as I'm still trying to (have people who are more skilled than I am) get a things dialed in, but it definitely gets punchy! I threw a code once merging onto the interstate on Level 4, presumably from a little too much right foot, so you do sort of have to check yourself from time to time.

If you're doing all this, why not? They claim 215hp vs 163, and 369 lb/ft vs 310, and it's $400.
