Default Puke tank

I fixed my original tank for the last time. Where can I get a new one?

Gessford also has them, both stock style and the Dove cast aluminum. The stock style one is shortened.

I spoke with George at Gessford, he was the most helpfull and I didn't spend a dime with him. His are made to your specifications $485.00 each. He sent me to finishline they have kits for $310.00 and to Southern Automotive there's are $350.00. I am still looking for a Polish Stainless Steel one.

I called Bill at Snake Pit Automotive right away he didn't have one. He is trying to get one from another dealer. Not sure of the cost?

I bought a beautifully polished stainless steel tank from Southern Automotive for my LSC. They have them for driver and passenger side installations. I test fit the tank and it was about an 1" too tall. They took it back, custom made me a brass (gloss black painted) tank and gave me back nearly $100 in the form of a refund. It's a very high quality tank, perfectly done and their customer service was outstanding.

FE expansion tank question..

Expansion tanks...part of the cooling system.

Puke tanks...catch tanks used in different applications for catching engine/drivetrain fluids to protect the track surface.

Default I found one

Bill from Snakepit Automotive emailed me, he has one for $595.00 plus shipping $30.00 new polished stainless steel.
No picture and no guarantee it will fit. How can he do business like that? A six hundred dollar wall hanging, I think not.

Default I should have kept my Mouth Shut

John at Dynamic, Reno called back; seems he was looking at the wrong price list. I paid $500.00 plus shipping. Still cheaper than Snakepit but it is nice. I am going to display it awhile in the den before installation. Thanks to all for the help and leads to follow.
