im thinking about removing my expansion tank and adding a inline radiator hose filler. Any suggestions? thoughts concerns? or should i stick with the factory expansion tank?
i wanna remove it for the space and it will look cleaner
any preference on inline hose fillers? i know it needs to proally go on the upper radiator hose.
thanks

im just curious to see it mounted with the angles it shows.........im going to all the auto parts stores tonight to see if i can find one, if not dealer tomorrow. i just hate to get it and it not sit right.
as for capping off the port on the head, im gonna run it to the radiator overflow then tee the line and run that to the overflow.
Any progress on this?
Im looking to do this myself. any part numbers, pics, diagrams, etc. you have would seriously help me out.
i just replaced my radiator with an s10 radiator and called it a day lol

you could end up puking coolant out quite a bit, certianly if you run serious performance or boost, they are there for a reason (heat/expansion, the liquid needs that room to grow). I have seen it happen then the guys car over heated

i just put an overflow bottle on mine and it stays right at 195 and i beat the piss outta the car and for the guys with the griffin rad you could always get a cap and bung welded to the griffin and delete the expansion tank
