We machined a slot in the top of the stiffening rib to allow the water to flow across and not get trapped. The stiffening rib also makes the top so it will never bulge (like the original tanks).

Pic of the top and the bottom of the tank halves. We make these for big blocks and small blocks. We also make them with either right or left outlet.

This is the baffle plate (just like the original) that we put in the tank. We machined a little recess into the bolt bosses to hold the plate in place.
