I have noticed that the electrical connections at the top of my a/c receiver/dryer get bent because they rub on the back of the tub. I would recommend adding a bit of extra clearance there.
How much heavier is your new tub compared to factory? Will it have a cover?
It would be great if you could post some photos once the project progresses sufficiently.
