I'm going to the junkyard tomorrow to look for a reservoir for Nader. LS motor so pressurized. Any ready available ones that you think are just a little cooler than most?

NM found one. Unless you really have a thing for pressurized coolant reservoirs and want to share with the rest of the class.
I ordered a new one for the Lemons Car. For a Solstice, but mounts in a Datsun B210 without issue. And it was $20. I figured LKQ would be close to that much for a used one.
Every Volvo built since 1968.
Most euro cars!
I like the spherical VW tanks from late 90's era Golfs. At ~$20 new with a cap it isn't worth the time to go to a junkyard for one of questionable provenance
In reply to Trent (Generally supportive dude) :
They also have easy to fab for mounting tabs!
Ford Big blocks had these. No idea if it could be made to work, but hella cool.
In reply to wheelsmithy (Joe-with-an-L) (Forum Supporter) :
That is a surge tank, which in some ways a lot better, as it allows the coolant to de-aerate before it gets to the radiator.
I bought the makings for a surge tank for the RX-7, before I realized that I would have nowhere to actually put it.
I snapped this pic of the upper rad hose mounted, inline expansion tank in a Daimler dart at Monterey last year because it seemed like such a simple and clever idea that I would have never thought of. Easy to fab as well
Do you want cool or do you want cheap? Hard to get both.
Moroso, Canton etc. make lovely alloy tanks but they would set you back $100+
