What are you guys using for your coolant resevoirs considering the LS engines are unique when compared to the traditional sbc.

 

In a swap, a reservoir is a reservoir. What ever works with your car and radiator will work with the LS engine.

 

It depends on your radiator. If using a traditional style from the original engine, any puke tank will do, even a bottle with a hose in it

 

My car had an lt1, and I cant figure out how to make the original resevoir tie into the ls cooling system. I looped the wp inlet and outlet together to do away with the heater core, basically its like the lt1 resevoir has too many open orifices.

 

Pictures?

I used an old volvo 240/740 expansion tank and t'ed it to a heater hose. The top has inlet I used for the steam line.

Had the tank laying around from other swaps... cheap, easy to find and gets the job done.

 

i've taken the ghetto route, i've got one of the many beer bottles used during contruction zip tied to the rad cradle
