The V8`s don`t have one mate, with the engine off and cap removed squeze the middle of the top radiator hose and realease watching the level at the neck at all times and top up and repeat, then start car and let it idle for a while and top up when the level drops then replace cap, done. also fill the overflow half way between the min max (cold hot) marks and check the level after a couple of days of driving whilst cold it should draw in a bit of excess thus filling itself.

Some people hold it a a certain rev range for a brief period this is fine just wait a while so it warms up until you do this
