Got a pin hole in my tank...

Decided to build one from 3mm alloy.

Nice job!

 

Lovely job. What did you use to weld the aluminium please?

 

Looks like TIG.

Very nice job, you could sell those

 

AC/DC TIG.

I own an engineering business and my business partner is an aluminium specialist.

The radiator neck is pressed alloy.

We would be happy to build these for people if they are in the need.

Cheers

 

Looking good! I'd recommend giving the inside a protective coat... Outside maybe as well...

 

 

Nice job, looks great!

Cheers

For the benefit of anyone on a tight budget I'll just add that your local radiator repair shop can often repair your existing tank if it isn't too far gone.

that came out very nice. well done.

 

Where does your top hose go off the neck? And can you easily change the shape but keep oem mounts, coolant sensor holes etc? I'd rather buy from the community then a random supplier of honda/gm junk

I was going to buy a aftermarket one it was more tall then rectangular, but same compact size, has a plastic? tube to visually see coolant level, and various fittings for adding crap like gauge probes. It was rather expensive

 

Hi Vancouver... Top hose goes off under the engine. Guard tank failed so I don't use it now.

Cheers
