Hi,

I just did a major relocation and cooling system modification to my car last year and it works. Getting the surge tank out of the high pressure side of the system and eliminating some of the twists and turns in the system helps cool these cars. I have Arizona summer desert testing to prove it and I only run a ten pound radiator cap now. You don't have to relocate the tank, but you do need to vent the upper part of the radiator back to the top of the surge tank and also get rid of the thermostat housing pipe that goes to the top of the tank. I can give you more ideas on this if you send me an e-mail. I didn't take any photos of the modification and it is hard to get photos of it once it is intalled.
