Wondering if anyone has any pictures of radiator overflow tanks for 36? Looking for something that would be period correct.

Thanks

Be careful not to pressurize your radiator/system more than it should be. Excess pressure may encourage leaks at the water pump sleeve bearings, pump and head gaskets and hose connections. My '47 is stock at 4 psi. Later cars seeking higher mileage and/or performance went to 10, 12 and more to raise the operating temperatures.
