With our old cars & choice of system I'm siding with Norman here. Keep it simple & minimise pressurised joints. My mind has been made up & I shall be making my jury rigged overflow system permanent. I also have a tropical radiator fitted (looks standard). Manufactured for Barratts by Nigel's supplier, Northampton Radiators. Has their plate on it at the base. I paid GBP 500 for mine. The last time Barratts listed it, it was GBP 900. Ouch!

Thanks for the info Rob, the tank is identical to yours put painted so I'll get a strap for it, I know the MGOC shop well with the amount of stuff I've had to buy for the Frankinstine Midget/Frog I have.
