    I have used Superior Radiators (Mount Clemens, Mi) on several cars......no issues and made in USA at a decent price.

    In the day, guys would use 2 bottom A tanks...
    cut them in half at center...
    flip 1 half 180* so the tank drops on both sides with one port pointing the wrong way ...
    then they moved the port and it's original hole filled.
