RE: Need Rad Cap info to use with overflow tank

You don't need a special cap, just run the hose from the radiator overflow to the bottom of your overflow tank and leave the top of the overflow tank vented. When the coolant in the engine warms and expands it wil flow to the overflow tank. When the coolant in the engine cools and contracts the vacuum created will suck the coolant out of the overflow and back into the radiator. Been using this setup in my Mustang for a while now, works great.
