Default Who has used a Corvette overflow tank?

I know I've seen a few pictures of trucks that are using the Vette coolant overflow tanks but I can't seem to find them again. The 97-99 cars have a different part number tank than the 2000-2004. Does it matter which one I use? What does it take to bolt one up in the trucks?

I will be putting the vette over flow in my truck also, Should be getting it here in a week or so, I can give you a part number than, or you can call Rick at Synergy Motorsports and ask him, he is a Vette guy turned Truck guy.

Just got ahold of Rick and he said to use the newer C5 tanks. I'm probably going to pick one up this afternoon. I'll post the part number once I have it.

I'm just hoping this will fit what I need tucking my wheels up front, I may still run a billet overflow but I'd like to have this for a good backup idea

I think mine is leaking, so I'll probably try to swap this weekend. I'll take a bunch of pictures..not sure how "bolt-onable" it will be or if it will require some fab work.

Nope, never got the tank. My leak disappeared, and once Kyle makes me the new turbo manifold, the turbo will be out of the way of the coolant tank. I think I'll just stick with the stock one.
