i thought the plastic one was an upgrade over the metal one which rusted, both my blobeyes had metal ones which were rusty as fook, my current hawkeye has the plastic one and all is fine

Plastic header tanks only tend to crack if you accidentally lean on them while working in the turbo area and break one of the coolant hose stubs off.
