Nice piece! I think bracket you made might fail (1/4" al?) Looks like it will be affected by severe vibrations. Maybe you can add another brace on the bottle and attach it to one of the water pump housings studs I think you will need a longer stud though.

Wow, great work. It must be very satisfying to make your own parts from scratch. Any other projects planned?
