Overflow Tank Location

[CaptB]

Using an aftermarket overflow tank but have any of you mounted an overflow tank to the F panel?

The tank I am using fits flat on the panel and it's riveted and sileconed in but I didn't know if I should fab a braket or if it would work.

Here's the tank I'm using:

169688

Thanks in advance.

Mounting directly to the panel should be fine.

Thanks! The good news is I'm down to small things like this waiting on the Forte 427 which should be here next month (or so).

Sounds like you already got your answer, but just for fun...I mounted my coolant overflow tank there as well. The F panel is well supported. Different style, but, same principle. This is a build picture, but it's been fine for several years.

Yeah I think it is but sometimes you overthink it and the saftey valve is coming here to ask the question (sometimes stupid) but at least you get an answer!

Hey I get it, I'm often the king of overthinking :)

That tank looks way too small. What is the capacity?
