In a corsa engine bay,

Coolant tank is very close to my inlet and I can't actually fix it to the standard fixing points which is shite.

Can it be sat over in the passenger wing ?

Surely would be more difficult for the water to flow downward ? Or would this be pushed through the system by pressure ?
