Stainless Expansion Tank

I need one now, as the original will look grubby next to my polished Uno Turbo engine!

I'm assuming the x19 tank will work ok with the 1400 uno turbo engine - any ideas?

Cheers Rich

I have the perfect thing for you!
I have a grubby old 1500 that will match your expansion tank perfectly. I'll do you a straight swap!




Can't you polish up the one you have?

You will need too add a extra pipe off it so the turbo can push back it's water feed into the system as per the original Uno one Rich

Cheers Rob sounds like an easy mod, i still want one!

Slowly getting things together, ended up stripping the engine right down, new piston rings, bearings, valve seats reground, head skim etc.

Its a fair bit more work than originally thought! although the engine fiddling is the fun bit!
