or better yet have the inlet at the top and force it down a corkscrew design to the bottom...
You could make the screw part out of galvanized sheet metal and wrap it around a copper pipe and weld it to it or use JB weld. Make the screw part that goes around the copper pipe the same diameter as the inside diameter of the reserator. Insert into the reserator and attach the intlet to the copper tube to force the inlet to come out at the top then run down the screw.
Since the whole thing would be filled it would be over kill and probably wouldnt change much from just forcing the inlet to come out at the top but it would be really fun to do
