Default 460 Expansion tank

Does anyone know where to get the 460 expansion tanks that look like the 427's / 428s'. I have seen a few on Superformance's and at least one on a Midstates but have not found them at Finishline, etc. Are they being custom made or can I go out and buy one???

I can't tell you have many expansion tanks I have removed due to their continual leak generation. But if you have gotta have the look.....

Thanks, I hadn't seen the one at Finish line. They are always adding ways for me to spend more money. What are the other options other than an expansion tank? An overflow bottle? I don't necessarily care about original looks as much as function. I've done alot of electrical work, motor rebuilds, etc. but have never had to deal with cooling systems that much.

You might want to try Cobra Restorers. . . they have a great selection of parts.

My brother picked this one up off a Yahoo auction a while back for his 429. If I remember correctly, he paid about $25 for it.
