Default header tank

i thought about putting mine under the nose but thought against it as it would be a nightmare to fill close to exhaust etc also on mine i dont think it would be high enough i made an alloy one and got a weld on neck from car builders solutions (£10) to accept a push and twist style rad cap (like pinto powered mk 2 escorts, cortina etc have) i have a pic on my photos of the tank in position i then simply used 22mm copper pipe to bend round the engine bay to the rad i painted it black and have soldered olives on the end so the pipes would not blow off looks fairly neat if i do say so myself
