I don't see how you've gone through two radiator overflow tanks already, but if they're wearing out on your that fast, I would just go with an aluminum part. They're strictly cosmetic. Just make sure not to change the mounting location - it should be kept level with the top of the radiator, just like the OEM unit is.

Thanks for the info. Personally the car is being built up to be more for show and to just get me from point a to b, but at the same time I'm not looking to have to be replacing parts every few months and that tank is one of the few things I;m looking to replace currently. Thanks for the help and sorry for the misplaced post.
