    I know the swirl pot as part of the cooling system. That's a picture of the neck for the oil tank. Which do you need?

    The "swirl" aspect is for deaeration, hence the use of the term in oil systems. Coolant doesnt need deaeration, but they use "header tanks" to accommodate expansion and contraction.

    What he said!

    If we cant source one, we are looking into making new ones that are nicer... is there any interest from the crowd?
