Regarding expansion tanks, I've just installed one of the brass ones off an
older Jag but have not decided to use pressurized or non-pressurized. One
of the questions on using it pressurized is the connection of the overflow
outlet to the neck on the Mog rad -- it seems to be just swaged in? Does it
need to be silver soldered in or is it OK as is (that is, with only 7 lb to
contend with will it hold?). Comments?
