This OR This

Ready to order this item for radiator overflow. I have some crappy plastic wiper washer looking jug there from previous owner.
The stock metal one and braket are gone and the heater is all bypassed so something simple like this should be the ticket.

Question...

Do I need the one with a filler neck or can I just use the filler on radiator and get one with a vent at the top?

What height will something like this need to be in relation to radiator?

Thanks

I've been wanting to get one of those too..where would you install it? I was thinking of installing it where my old expansion tank was on the inner fender, but it would have to be installed horizontally? maybe?

I think it has to be vertical to work correctly.
and it would go where the old one was
It is listed as 7" in height and 3" across so it will fit in my area
