What is the expansion tank for on the old 390's?

By Steve M - 03/16/2004 6:29:30 AM; IP 209.115.87.2

I am new to these motors as you can tell by this question. I have a 67 galaxie with a 390 that I put in it. It does not have one of those expansion tanks on it. Do I need one? Just curious as to what it's function is.

Thanks
