Skully, I have a garage full of them. One of them is brand new still in the ford box. Take your choice. Price range from $75 to $150. THey are all standard Ford FE tanks..

Check out Summit Racing, the Canton line of reservoires is economically priced. If you are really cheap, a plastic fruit jiuce jug works nice, thick plastic and you can attach the neck with a hose clamp.  |

I bought the complete kit from Mickmate and it's extremely nice with everything you need. He also sells the tank separate,,

I got tired of looking at the plastic overflow tank, wanted something else. Dan, can you snap a picture of the new Puke Tank, I think that might work. Thank you.

Hey Skully, If you're running a 5 liter motor, This is the only one I've got that will work. It's chromed and shortened already so it should fit. I was asking $175 but we'll make an accomodation for a local. Let me know if you're interested.

Since I see pictures of both above, are you talking about a radiator surge tank or an oil puke tank?
For the puke tank, Mickmate makes a nice, original piece.

Dan has the surge/overflow tank and not a "puke" tank. Pukes/catch cans, usually mount on the firewall for oil vapor from the valve covers, transmission and rearends.

You can't go wrong with Nick (Mickmate). Originality is his passion, and his products are first class. He's always there if you have a problem or need advice too.

If you don't want a original, look at the Canto products. Great products and even greater people. I got this tank but had them add another AN fitting for two hoses. Very high quality.

Here is the remote recovery tank I use. Easy install, valve on bottom. Just stick hose in top. Bottom left CVRT-1.

Kevin, the tank comes raw aluminum so we powder coated it with silver powder to keep it from oxidizing. If you sand and polish the tank, you'll still have to put some kind of sealer on it, what would you use?
I don't want maintenance every few weeks, it's a driver, not a show car!
