I presume we get to choose the washer colour as per other GB's, Tim?

Yes of course, thanks for bringing this up as I forgot to include it in the original post.

Really interested. Will this include the pressurised cap?

Don't believe it will

Can include the SPAC one shown in the pics (0.9bar) for an extra 6gbp

Sorry to be a bit thick but the tank and cap be capable of 550 - 600 bhp?????

Hey Mark, I don't think the number of HP will be relevant as this shouldn't change the coolant pressure.

These are pretty thick 1 piece aluminum and are fully TIG welded so will actually be better than the 2 piece OEM aluminum header tank, some of the OEM ones are made out of plastic also.

Cheers tim. Joining the list for black square crinkle and cap

Hi Tim any chance of bolt kit group buy any time soon?

Hey can do!

Possible to design a Rallytech radiator cap to go with this? Looking for a black one everywhere but with little success

Hey there mate, no plans to do this right now but maybe in the future some time.

Interested in a square black one. I've already got your PTFE spacer kit so do I get a further discount? :P

Yes we can discount it a little if you already have the header tank spacer kit :)

Will around one fit a classic? If so I will take one.

Sure will mate, they've been designed to be pretty much the same dimensions as the standard header tank.

Could I have a square wrinkle black one please with red washers

Are things still on track with the timescale Tim?

Afraid not, they're being fabricated now though. As soon as they're on the way to powedercoat we'll PM with payment info.

I might be stating the obvious but there's not going to be any powder coating on the inside is there? Hot coolant and powder coat don't go well together.

Haha, no there will be no powdercoat on the inside of the tank.

Cheers Tim. May have been a bit of a strange question but having had problems with overspray on the inside of the filler neck on my standard header tank, I didn't want the same issue again.
