Reply to "cooling plumbing coating"

another cooling question. the parts book show a top radiator vent going under car back to swirl tank for ('74 >5899). Mine had a short vent hose going to the main return 1 1/4" tube.

what is the diamater of that steel pipe and is the fitting diameter at the tank restricted?

I would like to also ask this question to anyone that has added the top of radiator vent back to a surge tank what size was used.

as for coating the tubes and tanks, a local radiator shop wants to look at mine and he said he might be able to clean them up and apply inteneral protectant.

I just want to have my plans for fixing the swirl to vent to a surge and have the expansion tank converted to accept vents and drain to pump suction as a surge. I was wondering if 5/8" for the top radiator vent was approaiate to stay with similair hose as heater
