coolant overflow question

Post by bandman » Sun May 18, 2008 2:30 pm

I am putting the finishing touches on making my car drivable(hopefully next weekend). I took out an aftermarket bottle from my car when I had it painted. I ordered a replacement (71-72 B body replacement), but now I don't know where it goes or where it is mounted. Any help or pictures you could get me would be apprectiated.

I don't think the repo comes with the brackets you need to mount it. They might be harder to find than the bottle

yup the bottle is about 90 bux and then you have to buy the bracket, which is 90...my 71 didn't have one, just a hose, same for my 78 dodge pickup - i have an aftermarket one now...personally, i don't really think it even works, but idk....

but, i think that it mounts between the header panel and the radiator support...not really sure, though

Does anyone have a picture of the tank and where it mounts?
