    I'm wondering, why use a burp tank? My 56 didn't come with one and the stock radiator works just fine and has never spilled a drop....unless I have it too full, then it pushes it out of the fins to a certain level then not a drop... ya I know a little wierd but it's kept my engine cool even on the warmest days.

    Used a WWII type canteen - made a coolant recovery out of it.

    I just picked up an old water bag from Yellowstone Park, at an estate sale, I couldn't pass it up for $3.00. I thought this would be a real neat overflow for something. The front side says Yellowstone Park, and this is what is on the back side.

    I am using a non-anodized one of these. They are spun aluminium, so look similar to a moon tank.

    I have a 3.5 gal moon tank out front on my '32, and a old tin Quakerstate oil can on my '33.

    A "Flathead Cola" bottle to go with my "Flathead Lake Monster Ale" shifter.
