as above, ive designed a header tank that looks similar to the cc tanks on the sc conversions. I have had the protertype made however it does need a slight tweak but its minor.

 

wondering if there is much interest for a group buy?

 

i will post a couple of photos

  Looks really good!

 

 

    Will it come supplied with a pair of mole grips, or do we supply our own?   :ninja:

Link works fine for me. It replaces the coolant resevoir presumably it will -

Look good (subjective)
Won’t fade, crack, discolour, or go brittle as easilly as the plastic oem one
Retain more heat / contribute to increasing temps very slightly?
Hold more pressure?
Make it harder to see a level reading
Weigh more?

unable to mimic the same level sensor, so this comes with a new level sensor to use :)
