Does this puke tank and mounts come with a Backdraft car....or is it aftermarket?

(Thanks BlackBDR for the picture)

closest think I have seen is at the finish line. $325.00 for a 351 block. www.cobraaccessories.com/home.htm

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, But I seem to remember someone from BDR recently mentioning that they custom make those in house and they don't sell them. That is my favorite tank also.

Here's a question, what are the advantages-disadvantages of the tank feeding the bottom radiator hose like the BDR tank, or the top radiator hose Like the Finishline tank?

Can't help you on where to get it, but for the record, you are looking for a radiator EXPANSION tank, not a puke tank. Puke tanks are designed to contain any oil vapors emitted by the engine, and were mandated for racing. Most are found mounted on the engine firewall.

You are correct, BDR custom makes those tanks just for their cars. I asked that question a while back and have not found anything quite like it to date.
