Radiator overflow question.
So I'm going to use the radiator from the donor vehicle (08 escalade 6.2) in my 72 burb. There is no cap on the radiator like my old radiator. Do I need to run the overflow unit from the donor vehicle? Does it have a special pressurized cap on it? Can I use any overflow container with a lid, or does it have to withstand great pressure?
Are these new cooling systems not pressurized? Thanks in advance!! Shawn Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Radiator overflow question.
The overflow tank from a 99-up is needed if using the donor radiator.

Re: Radiator overflow question.
Reccomendations on an overflow tank to buy?
