Air to Water Tank placement

Air to Water Tank placement
I am running a air to water intercooler sandwiched inside between the intake manifold on my twin turbo v8 swap and I am wondering where everyone has been placing their water tank in the car.
Passenger area is a option but this is a "street car", so if anyone has tank recommendations that will keep some passenger seat I'd appreciate it. Nose is my second option, but I've only seen S2king with a nose setup. Good news is my car is cut off 4 inches in front of the spindles(per x275 rules) with a tube front assembly for my radiator/lights/etc. If anyone else has done this I'd appreciate a idea of whose unit you went with. Third and probably the worst option is on the passenger side engine bay where the battery sat. I think I could fit a custom 5 gallon setup there, but if anyone has made one I'd love a link to such a setup. Bad side is heat would be a bitch and even on a e85 car I'd have to run ice constantly.
Here is the space I have to work with, gonna run a prostock/scirocco rad where most S2000s put their intercoolers so I have plenty of bay space

My radiator plans are a 14x25x3 dual core dual pass unit. Shroud and two nice fans. A 16x27 worked great NA so I am hoping with E85 temps the smaller unit will work with a better fan setup. Hopefully. I might have more room than I planned but I'd love to tuck this thing up under the bumper where the lights are.

From personal experience I wouldn't put anything in the rear of an S2000 if you are going to be big power drag racing.
I'd try my best to fit it all up front

I havent. Good idea though. Also didnt consider where the old fuel tank was.. like you said though that is a lot of line. Someone needs to make a tank in the shape of a passenger seat.
