    I've seen that tank before. I think it is an early Ford product.
    Don't forget that a recovery tank needs a double sealed radiator cap or you won't build the vacuum necessary to pull the coolant back into the radiator.

    i use a nalgene bottle with the hose coming in from the bottom, and have it mounted to the right side of the radiator. The generic ones from the stores didn't fit my style.
    sorry my pics don't work here

    The tank I installed in the 3B. I think that went in about 2007.
