Reversing inlet on puke tank ?
Hello, I'm wanting to buy a expansion tank but, most are passenger side inlet, I'm wanting a drivers side. I know we can buy new ones for $200 & up. I may have it chrome platted. Going that route is EXPENSIVE ! So, I'm looking for a good condition one on ebay or other means. I may also have to lower the tank an inch or so for clearence. Is my thinking correct that if I buy a right side inlet tank, can I just heat up the bottom U-tube & rotate it to the left or (drivers side) ? If I have to lower the tank, will I have to fab up a different mounting bracket & the U-tube also ? Will chrome platting not, adhear to the solder joints ? If dented, what fill compound will platting stick too ? ect... ect....
Any opinions & advise would be great !!!!
Thanks,
(trying to be CHEAP..... Kevin)
