Over flow bottle was not mandated til 72.
The 72 only setup is hard to find. Don't think anyone is making a repro, not sure.

I was think about getting a parts store one and hiding it under the battery tray.

Yes...

Have never had an overflow(71)...

I keep coolant level 1 1/2" below top of tank...

Very rarely does it 'spit'...

Along the same lines....does anyone make a OEM look radiator (even without numbers), fan shroud and fan kit for 71 Chargers? The only thing I am finding so far is $1000 radiators or a reproduction that does not work with 0EM shrouds????? Needing a 26" radiator, shroud and fan for 440 auto.....

Glen Ray Radiators makes exact reproductions or ones that are exact, but no numbers on them.

When I looked at his website I did not see a "econo"/no numbers radiator. The only thing I saw was $1195 and you selected the numbers you want on the top tank and the date code you wanted?

Call and ask for Bob. I know he has sold them in the past.

If yer interested in getting into it for less $$$, go find a used 26" rad for the tanks...Have it re-cored...

Manicini's has a 'fan kit'...

I used a late-model shroud that was deeper than OEM...

There are options...
