Default Radix coolant tank?

Would this work as the Radix coolant storage tank?

Does not hold much and the in and out are small.
You would need to modify it to work.
Have you seen these.

I thought about the openings and that's why I started the thread.

I saw yours and that's why I resurrected your old truck thread and it also got me to looking around.

No offense... but I wish yours had some more visual appeal... like being available in aluminum or polished aluminum.

I guess I could primer it with plastic primer and then paint it white and put a polished cap on it. Then I could use it for the Radix or for the Alky control methanol and reclaim my windshield washer. Hmmm.

I was interested in one of those tanks from Trick but their site says "Backordered". You could paint it with Krylon Fusion and it will look good.

We can build aluminum tanks, and have done it for years. Black composite tanks are a more economical option.

I was looking for an alumium tank but the only 10x5x8 tank, like the one above, shown in the on line store is the black plastic tank for $150. Do you sell the aluminum tank that is shown above and in photos on your site? It doesn't seem to be in the store.
