Hi to all,
As title really suggestions about a header tank and how to connect it to a front cinquecento radiator in a round nose mini. Photos from your engine bays would be really helpfull.
Thanks in advance John.

Have a look at Bretts build sure he had a fiat rad.

What the mind can conceive the mini can achieve
MITP 2012 17.01 seconds 1/4 mile against "The Don"
MITP 2013 16.83 seconds 1/4 mile

this is the best pic i have, i did not keep the cinc rad long as mine was crap ( really cheap ebay one)

the top hose was cut and connected, the header tank connected to the long one sticking up ( marked with blue line)
