Hi there Shaun,

I will be wanting to get a fuel tank and radiator filler/expansion tank made soon.
I want to use the standard VN type in tank pump and pickp,and the sender unit is a VDO style that is fitted through a hole in the top of the tank.
My car is a CR so something similar in design and fitting to Phil Neals would be great.
I can post you the pickup and sender unit.

And in regards to the radiator tank I am open to suggestions regarding size and shape, I would like it to sit infront of the l/h shock tower, inside the engine bay, infront of the X brace. If you sorta know what I am saying?

Regards,

Thanks Shaun,
I am not after a radiator just yet (soon).
But I do need a header tank, I just had a look in Lukes gallery, and yes that is the type and style tank I am after.
Can you tell me the dimensions of the tank and the pipe locations, in relation to the height from bottom of tank.
In regard to the fuel tank, it isnt imperative that I have an in tank pump setup, It is just that I do have a pickup and new pump here (can always sell the pump)
My car uses the standard VT fuel pump that is located inside a swirl pot.
So I need a pump that will transfer fuel from main tank into swirl pot.
The sender unit is specific to the gauges though, so it must use the sender I have.
