Default coolant overflow container
is there a preference with pressurized or not?

working on a ls1 swap in a 65 impala and found a nice container that fits cleanly, but is not pressurized.

Plan on dex orange fluid.

thanks for any input.

No need to be pressurised ,,,,,,,,,,,and make sure the hose from rad to over-flow tank is long enough to touch the bottom of the over-flow tank .
