Albatross Header tank photos

Post by Sea-Jay »

I have despaired of being able to find a ford OHV cast header tank - if anyone has a spare one PLEASE let me know!

I have therefore come to the conclusion that I will have to get one fabricated; can anyone please post some photos with dimensions, showing the inlet/outlet pipes and where they connect to?

Ah yes.................I remember it, from the photos it looked like a side mounting tank al la Climax Alby, not a cylinder head mounting one!
