Air horn reservoir - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have the GM Power Pack compressor and I have the GMC Dual Air Horn kit on its way.

Normally I think the air horn would have a little tank with a check valve as a reservoir. The odds of me finding that separate from the horns is pretty slim, so I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a period-correct-looking alternative.

Remember this is pressure, not vacuum, and has to take up to 150psi.

Does anyone make a fist-sized tank with an integral check valve? I don't want the air shocks to bleed down when I hit the horn, so it needs the check valve.
