Big Al Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I would like to install and after market Radiator overflow tank. But before I purchase one I wanted to know if anyone has installed the stainless steal tubular type sizes 2X13, 2X15 or 2X17 that you normally find for sale on EBay. I was looking in my engine bay and around the radiator and was trying to figure out where it would mount. If anyone has and have some pictures you could post I would appreciate it.

Murphy Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Hey Big Al, here's a low cost option for you. I bought generic overflow tank at O'Rielly's Auto Parts and piece of aluminum strap at Home Depot. Making a few bends and drilling a few holes in the strap and a quick coat of black paint the tank mounts right up in a location that is completely out of the way.....

Leghome Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 When I bought my 72 the previous owner had put a Carona beer bottle in for the overflow tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
