should it really matter?, aslong as is a guestimate of the factory overflow you should be right, why do you want to change the stock one?

But if its a small over flow bottle just check it regular, and also not sure if it has to be a sertain hight as for it putting water back into the radiator, not sure if it can be lower or higher that maybe another thing you would have to look at, but its just a thought.

The question is how much coolant does the radiator cap expel at (and above) operating temp. Doesnt really matter if its higher/lower as long as theres no leaks and the bottle pickup is submerged in coolant.

Keep us posted if you work something out, I'm sick of my gay looking VN overflow/washer bottles

I can understand why Mr savage would want to remove his because he has mental issues with that kind of thing, but I'm not understanding why powerslave can't keep his stock one

it's true once I even wonder if something shouldn't be there, I slowly become 100% set on it until it eats at me

hope you dont wonder about your missus lol....autobarn had oil catch cans on special (blue and red) so i got one am now thinking i should of got both colours and fitted them in place of the overflow one colour for oil and one for water...would look much more prettier than standard

ended up getting this, hopefully the volume and fittings matches up, otherwise i'll just use it as a washer bottle, and delete everything from the driver pillar.
