bovsti Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Has anyone replaced the crappy plastic coolant expansion tank with the alloy version on the classic? Was easy/hard? Did you have to get any "bits" made to get it to fit? Cheers Bovis.
colin_ross Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 JohnnyR6 and Coulty did it on theirs. The pipes all fit ok but the newer tanks fouls on the the shape of the older manifold. I made up a bracket to space it out a little and job was a goodun. They may be able to post up a pic if they read this.

I am a bit of skinflint so i opted for the cheaper PAS alloy header tank first off, if i really can't get it to fit, i will get the forge and it is good to know that it is a simple job to fit!
