That's the modification work that my radiator guy has to do. I removed the outlet on the bottom so he could seal it. Then, he has to remove the big right side inlet and attach a plate and 5/8" nipple. The collar for the cap has to be removed and turned 90* so the overflow is at the rear. Finally, there is the 5/16" inlet that needs to be attached to the front of the tank. The overall shape of this tank is correct, but there is a lot of work and modification needed to make it look like a Cobra tank.
