Before installing. Weld a Bung threaded for a machine screw on the side that will allow a wire to be connected and then connect it to chassis ground.

I have also seen radiator caps with a sacraficial anode attached that are intended to decay in lieu of the radiator walls. I have no experience with these but they have been around for several years attempting to address this problem. Outboard motors have a similar anode that is intended to prevent the engine and lower drive unit from corroding.
